The effects of percutaneous branch pulmonary artery interventions on exercise capacity, lung perfusion, and right ventricular function in biventricular CHD: a systematic review.

Background: Branch pulmonary artery stenosis is common after surgical repair in patients with biventricular CHD and often requires reinterventions. However, (long-term) effects of percutaneous branch pulmonary artery interventions on exercise capacity, right ventricular function, and lung perfusion remain unclear. This review describes the (long-term) effects of percutaneous branch pulmonary artery interventions on exercise capacity, right ventricular function, and lung perfusion following PRISMA guidelines.
