Abstract
We present a 2-month-old girl with chondrodysplasia punctata in whom bilateral peripheral pulmonary artery stenoses were successfully treated by transcatheter balloon angioplasty. The minimal diameters of the right and left pulmonary arteries of 1.3 mm and 1.1 mm, respectively, which were dilated using a 4-mm balloon catheter. Balloon angioplasty is feasible and effective for relieving peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis in patients with chondrodysplasia punctata.
