Pulmonary artery banding in infants and young children with end-stage left ventricular dilated cardiomyopathy: cohort study
Pulmonary artery banding is safe and effective in infants and young children with end-stage DCM with preserved right ventricular function. Combined with conventional heart failure medication therapy, it may provide short-term benefits postoperatively, decrease the cardiogenic shock, act as a bridge to recovery, and potentially reduce the need for heart transplantation. Long-term effects remain further observation, and larger randomized controlled trials would be more persuasive in validating its efficacy.
