The neo-PS was defined when the peak flow velocity was over 3 m\/s at the neo main pulmonary artery (neo-MPA) after ASO by TEE (TEEPS). Catheterization was performed if estimated peak neo-PS pressure gradient was over 40 mm Hg by transthoracic echocardiography. Balloon angioplasty was tried first and surgical reoperation was reserved for those with failed angioplasty. <i>Results:<\/i> In total 49 consecutive patients were enrolled into the cohort study. TEEPS was identified in 21 patients. For patients with TEEPS, freedom from reintervention was 28% at 1 year and 23% at 2 years. For patients without TEEPS, freedom from reintervention for PS was 92% at 1 year and 78% at 2 years. The time interval from ASO to reintervention was significantly shorter in patients with TEEPS than without TEEPS. Existence of TEEPS and non-Lecompte method were main risk factor for reintervention. <i>Conclusion:<\/i> The present study demonstrated that the application of intraoperative TEE for infants undergoing ASO is very helpful in predicting the development of early postoperative neo-PS.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000107785","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,9,17]],"date-time":"2007-09-17T14:27:08Z","timestamp":1190039228000},"page":"230-236","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Prediction of Early Pulmonary Artery Stenosis after Arterial Switch Operation: The Role of Intraoperative Transesophageal Echocardiography"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"109","author":[{"given":"Yih-Sharng","family":"Chen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shen-Ko","family":"Tsai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chung-I","family":"Chang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ing-Sh","family":"Chiu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jou-Ko","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mei-Hwan","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ming-Jiuh","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2007,9,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS1010-7940%2805%2980041-7"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2Fs003920170139"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS1010-7940%2802%2900613-9"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0022-5223%2895%2970391-8"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0022-5223%2805%2980155-2"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0140-6736%2800%2904957-6"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067%2Fmtc.2002.120714"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2F0002-9149%2889%2990905-3"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2F0735-1097%2890%2990598-J"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2Fs002469900319"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067%2Fmtc.2002.125816"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0003-4975%2800%2901423-5"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067%2Fmtc.2002.125204"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.1460-9592.2003.01121.x"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007%2Fs00246-002-0239-8"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097%2F01.sla.0000124293.52814.a7"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0003-4975%2899%2901039-5"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2F0735-1097%2893%2990204-E"},{"key":"ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0002-9149%2802%2903406-9"},{"key":"ref20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067%2Fmtc.2001.115230"}],"container-title":["Cardiology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/107785","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/107785","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,24]],"date-time":"2025-04-24T02:52:50Z","timestamp":1745463170000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000107785"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2007,9,17]]},"references-count":20,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,3,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000107785","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0008-6312","1421-9751"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0008-6312","type":"print"},{"value":"1421-9751","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2007,9,17]]}}}
