Key result
A comprehensive programmatic approach combining primary medical and anatomic therapy was developed to address the multidisciplinary needs of children with pulmonary vein stenosis.
Why the study?
Pulmonary vein stenosis is challenging to treat due to high rates of recurrence and progression, requiring a multidisciplinary approach.
A multidisciplinary programmatic approach combining medical and anatomic therapies is proposed to manage the challenging condition of pulmonary vein stenosis in children.
May guide multidisciplinary care for pediatric pulmonary vein stenosis; leaves open the need for prospective validation.
Pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is a difficult condition to treat due to recurrence and progression. In 2017, we developed a comprehensive PVS Program at our center to address the multidisciplinary needs of these patients. We discuss the components of our program and our approach to these patients, using a combination of primary (medical) therapy in addition to anatomic therapy to preserve vessel patency. A multidisciplinary approach to treating these challenging patients is critical.
