In this episode, we review pulmonic stenosis (PS) and pulmonic regurgitation (PR). How do you distinguish between the click of pulmonic stenosis, aortic stenosis, Ebstein anomaly, and mitral valve prolapse? What cutoffs in peak velocity and mean gradient define severe, moderate, and mild PS? What is branch PS? Is surgical repair or pulmonary balloon valvuloplasty preferred for the treatment of moderate and severe PS? What echocardiographic findings characterize severe PR? In patients who develop PR as a result of intervention for PS, in what situation is pulmonary valve replacement indicated in the absence of symptoms? Tune in for answers to these questions.
