A 14 year old girl with double outlet right ventricle, left
isomerism, and complicated atrial anatomy had undergone corrective surgery with intra-atrial rerouting at 5 years of age. Cardiac catheterisation eight years after the surgery showed that she had two
systemic venous baffle stenoses: between the hepatic vein and caval
vein, and the caval vein and right atrium. Two Palmaz stents were
successfully implanted percutaneously through a long sheath and a
balloon catheter. The stenoses were relieved immediately and her
symptoms quickly disappeared.
