[A successful case of PA debanding after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty for restenosis of coarctation complex].
A 11-year-old boy, who had undergone the initial surgical repair for Coarctation complex at 6 months of age was readmitted to our hospital for radical correction. The initial repair at 6 months of age was patch angioplasty of coarctation, PDA division and PA banding. When he was 5 years old, a cardiac catheterization revealed spontaneous closure of VSD, restenosis of coarctation and RV outflow tract stenosis due to PA banding. This time he was treated with 2 steps of procedures. The first step was percutaneous transluminal angioplasty for restenosis of coarctation. Then RV outflow tract repair was performed at the second step. Postoperative course was uneventful.
