30 procedures of pulmonary valve implantation at the Institute of Cardiology

We are pleased to announce that since perfoming the first intravascular pulmonary valve implantation; i.e. 18th December.2008, the Institute of Cardiology has performed 30 such procedures.

Of note is the implementation of this method also in patients with a large right ventricular outflow tract, with the use of Edwards Sapien valves. This results in a significant increase in the number of indications for pulmonary valve implantation in patients who have previously undergone repair surgery.
