In congenital heart surgery, In right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction using an extracardiac conduit, it is difficult to achieve an optimal shape of a PA.
A novel surgical strategy using haemodynamic analyses based on virtual operations with computational simulations has been introduced for complicated pulmonary stenosis. We evaluated the efficacy of this strategy.
The show that Pulmonary artery plasty, using computational fluid dynamics based on virtual surgery, is an efficient surgical strategy.
