A cardiac team has performed a pulmonary valve replacement using a new catheter-based system. This procedure utilized the Alterra Adaptive Prestent System along with a transcatheter pulmonary valve. It provides an alternative for patients with complex pulmonary valve disease, eliminating the need for traditional open-chest surgery.
The procedure was carried out at The Hospitals of Providence Sierra Campus. It marked the first time this type of pulmonary valve replacement has been done using this method.
Further details about the procedure and its implications are available from the source.
