Initial experience suggests that aortoventriculoplasty with the pulmonary autograft is an excellent alternative for young patients with complex left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. Because the pulmonary autograft has been shown to grow after implantation, reoperation on the left ventricular outflow tract is likely to be avoided.

Outcomes after BCPS in young infants are comparable to those in older infants and children. However, our current preference is to defer this procedure until after 2 months of age.
