Percutaneous transluminary pulmonary valvuloplasty (PTPV) is a treatment of choice of congenital pulmonic valvular stenosis.

Method: Since its first performance in 1982, PTPV is used in treatment of pulmonic stenosis, mostly in children. In adults, PTPV is much less common.

Results: Since January 1996, we performed PTPV in 5 adult patients with good immediate results and without any significant complications. The follow up of 4 of these patients shows persisting good effect of the procedure.

Conclusion: PTPV represents a safe method with high procedural success and low risk of complications. Therefore it is accepted as a treatment of choice both of children and of adult patients with congential pulmonic stenosis.

Keywords: congenital pulmonic stenosis, baloon pulmonary valvuloplasty, adult patient.
