Abstract Relevant pressure recovery (PR) has been shown to increase functional stenotic aortic valve orifice area and reduce left ventricular load. However, little is known about the relevance of PR in the pulmonary artery. The study examined the impact of PR using 2D‐echocardiography in the pulmonary artery distal to the degenerated homograft in patients after Ross surgery. Ninety‐two patients with pulmonary homograft were investigated by Doppler echocardiography (mean time interval after surgery 31 ± 26 months). PR was measured as a function of pulmonary artery diameter determined by computed tomography angiography. Homograft orifice area, valve resistance, and transvalvular stroke work were calculated with and without considering PR. PR decreased as the pulmonary artery diameter increased (r = −0.69, p |
