Abstract Pulmonary valve stenosis (PVS) is one common post-operative problem in patients with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) after repair. Congenital bicuspid pulmonary valve (BPV) is a condition of valvular stenosis, and the occurrence of congenital BPV is often associated with TOF. Compared with the biomechanical simulation model of the bicuspid aortic valve, the BPV is often neglected. In this study, we developed a dynamic biomechanical model of a simulated normal pulmonary root (PR) with tri-leaflet and a model of simulated PR with BPV in patients with repaired TOF in order to describe the effect of geometric… More >
