Abstract:
A 6-month-old child with worsening cyanosis from birth, hypercyanotic spells and failure to thrive, was admitted with severe desaturation. Systemic saturation was < 56%, and echocardiography revealed severe infundibular pulmonary stenosis with normal pulmonary valve and a restrictive ventricular septal defect. The child underwent percutaneous stenting of the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT), with good reduction in gradient and clinical stabilization. The child is being followed up for elective intracardiac repair.
