Transcatheter Management of Pulmonary Vein Stenosis in Children

Connie Choi, Ryan Callahan Seattle Children’s Hospital. Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.United States Pediatric CardiologyPediatr Cardiol 2025;DOI: 10.1007/s00246-025-04130-x AbstractPediatric intraluminal pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is a challenging condition where the diagnosis is confirmed via cardiac catheterization. The patient population is complex with inherent hemodynamic vulnerabilities, and the high rate of restenosis necessitates recurrent, technically demanding transcatheter interventions.
