Percutaneous stenting of branch pulmonary arteries (PAs) has become an important interventional therapy in the complete management of congenital heart disease. Few data exist on long-term outcomes for patients requiring placement of bilateral stents. This study aimed to determine the medium- to long-term outcomes after bilateral stenting of branch PAs in patients with congenital heart disease.

Background: Improved outcomes in congenital heart disease have lead to the evolution of transcatheter therapies in adults aimed at maintaining normal hemodynamics. Stenting for pulmonary artery narrowing is effective in children, however little is known about outcomes in adults.
