Retrograde Pulmonary Valve Perforation and Stenting through a Major Aorto-Pulmonary Collateral Artery

Management of pulmonary atresia, ventricular septal defect with major aorto-pulmonary collateral arteries, and hypoplastic native pulmonary arteries focuses on growth of the native pulmonary arteries. One strategy to grow the native pulmonary arteries is through pulmonary valve perforation followed by right ventricular outflow tract stenting, if suitable. We present a unique case of retrograde pulmonary valve perforation and stenting of the right ventricular outflow tract through a major aorto-pulmonary collateral artery.
