Abstract
Pulmonary valvuloplasty using a mechanical technique proved effective in patients with PAIVS. Modification of the standard mechanical technique by using the soft tip of a special guidewire used for chronic total coronary artery occlusions was less aggressive and improved results. In patients with a favorable anatomy, results were comparable to those obtained using the radiofrequency technique.
