Article Synopsis
- From 1958 to 1969, a study followed 592 patients with pulmonary stenosis, primarily children, assessing management through medical or surgical interventions.
- The long-term results show a high survival rate (95.7%) for patients, with most living asymptomatically; only 4% of those who had surgery needed a second procedure.
- Overall, management outcomes indicate that patients can expect a healthy life, with surgical options recommended for those with significant gradients, while cases with lower gradients require further discussion on treatment.
