Complications confined to severe pulmonic stenosis in this cohort; leaves open applicability to modern natural history and management.
Observational (n=100)
Patients with pulmonic stenosis generally have a good prognosis with appropriate medical supervision for mild cases and surgery for severe cases, though complications like heart failure and endocarditis can occur.
Engle et al. (1964) conducted an observational in Pulmonic stenosis (n=100). Pulmonic stenosis was evaluated on Congestive heart failure. Among 100 patients with pulmonic stenosis, congestive heart failure occurred in 7% (all with severe stenosis) and subacute bacterial endocarditis in 7%.
