Bilateral Disease and Early Age at Presentation Are Associated with Shorter Survival in Patients with Congenital Heart Disease and Intraluminal Pulmonary Vein Stenosis

Abstract

Bilateral disease and earlier age at diagnosis are independent predictors of poor survival in patients with CHD and PVS, while patients with unilateral disease presenting at an older age have a better prognosis. These findings are helpful in risk stratification of patients with CHD and multivessel PVS.
