Rupture of a calcified right ventricle to pulmonary artery homograft by balloon dilation– emergency rescue by venus P-Valve

Table 2 Echocardiographic features of the patients one month after the procedure

Chambers sizes and ventricular function	Mild RAE & RVE, Mild RV dysfunction, TAPSE = 1.6 cm, LV systolic dysfunction (LVEF:45%),
Valves	Normally Related Great Arteries, Normal motion Bioprosthetic pulmonary valve, NO PS, Trivial PI, Mild to moderate TR, PPG = 25mmHg MPG = 14mmHg
SVC and IVC size	Normal size SVC & IVC.
Pericardial Effusion	Minimal pericardial effusion around LV apex = 4 mm,

RAE: Right atrial enlargement, RVE: Right ventricular enlargement, TAPSE: Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion, LA: Left atrium, LV: Left ventricle, TR: Tricuspid regurgitation, PG: Pressure gradient, MR: Mitral regurgitation, PI: Pulmonary insufficiency, PHT: Pressure half time, PS: Pulmonary stenosis, PPG: Peak pressure gradient, MPG: Mean pressure gradient, AI: Aortic insufficiency, AS: Aortic stenosis, LV: Left ventricle, LVEF: Left ventricle ejection fraction, SVC: Superior vena cave, IVC: Inferior vena cava, PE: Pericardial effusion
