    Notes: Intravascular stem placement in Pediatric Cardiology has provided one of the most interesting and effective means of catheter treatment of congenital lesions. In the 5 years since it has been performed, balloon-expandable stem placement has provided relief of many previously unbeatable vascular stenoses and has resulted in improvement of blood flow, reduction of right ventricular pressure and, in many cases, dramatic improvement of symptoms. In this article, the background of balloon-expandable stent placement is discussed, and specific observations are offered regarding the technique of implantation. The generally excellent results are presented and a number of novel problems and pitfalls are outlined. Finally, a brief summary of the wide ranging applicability of stent implantation is discussed, along with some of the important and imaginative new directions for the therapy.

    Notes: Background: We present a new one-wire technique for balloon aortic valvuloplasty and discuss possible advantages of this technique over other techniques. Methods: The records of 16 patients who underwent 18 procedures were reviewed. Technique: A floppy-tipped, nitinol wire (Ultra-Select, Microvena Corp., White Bear Lake, MN) is placed across the aortic valve through a guide/measurement catheter positioned in the aortic root. The guide catheter is then removed, and the balloon catheter is positioned. Balloon dilation is then performed. Results: Predilation all patients had 0–1+ aortic insufficiency (AI). Four of 18 procedures resulted in an increase of 〉1 grade of AI, leaving 14 of 18 with ≤1 grade increase in AI. The mean gradient reduction achieved was 65%. Follow-up: Eighty-seven percent of the procedures have required no further intervention. Conclusion: The ease and simplicity of the procedure may reduce the risk of increasing AI, decrease fluoroscopy time, and arterial access time. (J Interven Cardiol 2004;17:17–19)
