Abstract

>Most structural congenital heart diseases require prosthetic material for complete repair. We report on a satisfactory mid-term outcome of a right atrioventricular valvuloplasty (patch augmentation) using a small-intestine-submucosa extracellular matrix patch.

Keywords: Patch Augmentation; Heart Diseases; Right Atrioventricular Valve (RAVV)
