[Angioplasty of a stenosed Blalock-Taussig shunt. Its long-term assessment].
A Blalock-Taussig shunt was performed in a child of 14 months diagnosed with tetralogy of Fallot associated with a complete atrioventricular defect. Seven months later, a balloon dilatation was performed because the shunt was stenosed in the site of the distal anastomosis. Repeat angiography we proved the patency of the shunt without restenosis 4 year later.
