ASO was performed with satisfactory results in the overall survival and functional status. PS was the main reason for re-operation. Coronary lesions can appear late without any symptoms. Benefits of ASO can be achieved by long-term follow-ups of PS, AI and coronary lesions.
The expanded polytetrafluoroethylene valved conduits and patches with bulging sinuses showed excellent early-to-midterm results. The valved conduits and patches seem to be promising alternatives to homografts in right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction. Their function will be followed up further.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
