We report balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty using the Inoue catheter in three patients with severe valvular pulmonic stenosis. The mean right ventricular systolic pressure and the pulmonary valvular peak to peak systolic gradients decreased from 140 +/- 23 to 40 +/- 26 mmHg (P < 0.001) and 120 +/- 26 to 8 +/- 8 mmHg (P < 0.001) respectively. This report suggests that pulmonary valvuloplasty using the Inoue balloon catheter technique is feasible, safe and effective.
我们报告了3例重度肺动脉瓣狭窄患者使用Inoue导管进行球囊肺动脉瓣成形术的情况。平均右心室收缩压和肺动脉瓣收缩期峰峰值梯度分别从140±23降至40±26 mmHg（P<0.001）和120±26降至8±8 mmHg（P<0.001）。本报告表明，使用Inoue球囊导管技术进行肺动脉瓣成形术是可行、安全且有效的。
