Background: Infants with ductal-dependent pulmonary blood flow may undergo palliation
with either a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) stent or a modified Blalock-Taussig (BT) shunt …

Newborns with congenital heart disease often require interventions linked to high morbidity
and mortality rates. In the last few decades, many transcatheter interventions have become …

The use of prostaglandin‐E1 immediately after birth and subsequent surgical creation of the
modified Blalock‐Taussig shunt (BTS) shunt have remarkably improved the prognosis and …

Background Carotid artery (CA) and axillary artery (AA) access are increasingly used for
transcatheter stenting of the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), although reports are limited …

Balloon expandable coronary stenting has revolutionized the field of interventional
cardiology as a potential, minimally invasive modality for treating coronary artery disease …

Background Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) stent placement and systemic-pulmonary
surgical shunt procedure can both be performed as palliation for infants with duct-dependent …

Objectives We aimed to assess the experience using a percutaneous axillary artery
approach for insertion of arterial ductal stents in patients with critical right ventricular outflow …

For neonates with critical congenital heart disease requiring intervention, transcatheter
approaches for many conditions have been established over the past decades. These …

Background: Stenting of the patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is an established palliative
option for infants with ductal-dependent pulmonary blood flow. Following initial palliation …

Background: Carotid artery (CA) access allows a more straight route for many left heart
lesions. This has previously been achieved via a surgical cut-down approach in certain …
