Bicuspid pulmonary valve implantation using polytetrafluoroethylene membrane: early results and assessment of the valve function by magnetic resonance imaging

Abstract

Early results of bicuspid PV implantation using PTFE membrane were satisfactory. PTFE bicuspid PV demonstrated excellent performance for the short term as evidenced by echocardiography and MRI. Long-term follow-up is mandatory to determine the durability of this valve.
