Right internal jugular vein approach as an alternative in balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty.

Transjugular balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty was safely and successfully performed in five patients, two of whom had severe right heart failure. Crossing the stenotic pulmonary valve from the right internal jugular vein was consistently easy and quick. This approach should be considered whenever difficulties are experienced or anticipated in the femoral approach.
