## Abstract Cardiac catheterization is infrequently required in babies with pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum. The main indications are to decide on the best form of treatment, the options being determined by the right ventricular as well as infundibular morphology and the presence o
Pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum (PA/IVS) is a rare disease, accounting for less than 3% of all congenital heart lesions. The cause of PA/IVS is unknown.
