Aspiration Is Associated with Poor Treatment Response in Pediatric Pulmonary Vein Stenosis

Maria Niccum, Ryan Callahan, Kimberlee Gauvreau, Kathy J. JenkinsBoston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School.United States ChildrenChildren 2021; 8: DOI: 10.3390/children8090783 AbstractIntraluminal pulmonary vein stenosis is a disease with significant morbidity and mortality, though recent progress has been made using multimodal therapy with antiproliferative agents. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between […]

Shortening of Palmaz Genesis XD stents by longitudinal compression in pediatric patients with pulmonary vein stenosis: Bench-testing and case series

Melissa K. Webb, Henri JustinoBaylor College of Medicine and Texas Children’s Hospital.United States Catheterization and Cardiovascular InterventionsCatheter Cardiovasc Interv 2022; 99: 116-120DOI: 10.1002/ccd.29984 AbstractThe Palmaz Genesis XD stents (Cordis®, Cardinal Health, Dublin, OH) are an ideal option for stenting vessels in pediatric patients due to their ability to be re-dilated to large diameters to accompany children’s

“Half-uncovered technique” to secure larger stents for postoperative pulmonary vein stenosis

Hiroaki Kise, Takanari Fujii, Hideshi TomitaShowa University.Japan Cardiology in the YoungCardiol Young 2022; 32: 1327-1329DOI: 10.1017/S1047951121004790 AbstractAlthough larger stent placement could be effective for pulmonary vein stenosis, stents extrusion tends to occur due to caliber narrowing, small landing area, and the slippery nature. We placed stents with diameter ≧8 mm for four stenotic lesions using the

Accurate diagnosis often requires anatomical examination. We report four children with pulmonary vein stenosis. Autopsy showed bilateral lesions in two patients who were thought clinically to have unilateral disease. A diagnosis of PVS was made
