Pulmonary stenosis
Congenital narrowing of the right outflow tract occurs at three anatomical levels: valvular, infundibular and supravalvular.
Isolated pulmonary stenosis is one of the most common heart defects, accounting for 5 to 10% of all congenital abnormalities. There is usually a tricuspid valve, the commissures of which are more or less adherent, leaving a stenotic residual ostium. The subvalvular form of obstruction of the right outflow tract is called infundibular pulmonary stenosis. It occurs in isolation relatively seldom. Supravalvular pulmonary stenosis is observed extremely rarely.
In recent times, pulmonary stenosis has been treated exclusively interventionally by balloon dilatation.
