Fig. 1 Kaplan-Meier curves of survival (solid line) and reoperation-free survival (dotted line) for children after the pulmonary autograft procedure (numbers are equal for both curves). (CL = confidence limits.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 1997 63, 1713-1717DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(97)00040-4)
Fig. 2 Diameters of the pulmonary autograft annulus during follow-up in 19 children who had undergone the pulmonary autograft procedure. The dotted lines represent the 80% prediction interval of normal pulmonary trunk diameters measured by Snider and associates [[10]] in 110 normal children (aged, 1 day to 18 years) using two-dimensional echocardiography. (BSA = body surface area.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 1997 63, 1713-1717DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(97)00040-4)
