Abstract:
Percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) is an exciting growing field in cardiovascular medicine.With the sophisticated improvement of biomedical engineering,development of PPVI offers people a new way of less invasive techniques to treat these groups of patients with pulmonary valvular regurgitation over the past several years.New stent designs and operative and interventional hybrid approaches are under investigation.This nonsurgical approach has been proven to be feasible and holdpromise,although many obstacles still exist.At the present time,PPVI has been widely used in clinical in the United States and European countries,but in our country,only a small number of cases reports have been published.With wider application and development of PPVI,cumulative experiences and long-term follow-up of PPVI therapies,better criteria will be established for patient election.Complications will be reduced and safer and more effective treatment results will be achieved.PPVI therapies will be applied to a larger subset of patients and become an important alternative to future conventional pulmonary valve replacement.
