Heart murmur
Hi, We have a daughter 9 years old who is having heart murmur since birth. We are following up with pediatric cardiologist regularly for doing 2 D echo since she is having heart murmur. Findings:Mild Valvar pulmonary stenosis-peak gradient 38mm Hg.Pulmonary annulus -15mm,MPA-13 mm . Doctor suggested might have to do balloon angioplasty in future .How frequent we have to repeat the procedure & is there any risks like cardiac arrest.
