Popis: OBJECTIVES Bilateral pulmonary artery banding (bPAB) is utilized for some patients with a ventricular septal defect (VSD) and aortic coarctation (CoA) or interrupted aortic arch (IAA). We evaluated aortic valve (AoV) diameter and patient outcomes following bPAB. METHODS Between August 2010 and September 2015, 10 consecutive patients with VSD and patent ductus arteriosus-dependent CoA or IAA underwent bPAB because of an AoV diameter of approximately
