Acute and long-term effects of endovascular debanding of pulmonary arteries in a swine model.

abstract：BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE:Cardiopulmonary exercise capacity is often reduced in patients with transposition of the great arteries after atrial switch operation. Reduced exercise capacity may be caused by deterioration of systemic right ventricular function over time. This study analyzed serial changes in systemic right vent...
