Pulmonary root remodeling procedure for symptomatic supravalvular pulmonary stenosis in an adult patient who underwent pulmonary artery banding: a case report
Patient with SVPS could present with symptoms in the long term after PAB in childhood. Therefore, due to the currently increasing number of adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) cases, attention should be paid to patients who underwent PAB. In this case, pulmonary artery was degenerated in the whole circumference because of the remained banding tape and the stenosis part was just above the annulus. Therefore, we applied Yacoub remodeling technique to this reconstruction. This pulmonary root remodeling procedure was an effective option for such SVPS.
