Percutaneous balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty in children: a 10-Year retrospective follow-up study in resource-limited settings
Most patients typically achieve initial success following BPV at our center. However, it is not unusual for moderate to severe pulmonary regurgitation and restenosis to develop during follow-up. As such, this study underscores the significance of thorough follow-up care for patients who underwent BPV to promptly detect and address potential complications.
