After a fetus was diagnosed with severe pulmonary stenosis, the first in-utero percutaneous balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty in western China was performed. Because the baby would be born with serious complications if surgeons decided to wait until after birth, the surgery was performed two months prior to delivery. The baby was born healthy on October 10, 2022.
