Özet

Objective: Isolated pulmonary valve stenosis is the most common cause of the right ventricular outflow tract obstruction, and balloon valvuloplasty (BVP) has been the treatment of choice in these subgroup of patients. In this study, we aimed to evaluate right ventricular functions of patients who underwent BVP for PS using two-dimensional, pulse wave (PW) Doppler and tissue Doppler echocardiography during an average of 4 years (2 months-11 years) of follow-up period.
