Abstrakt		We describe the perforation of the right ventricular outflow tract with a 0.021 inch wire in a newborn infant with critical pulmonary valvar stenosis inan attempt to ballon dilatation of the pulmonary valve. The complication was diagnosed by contrast injection into the pericardium. The infant was followed with sector scan echocardiography and recovered completely from that injury. The dilatation was successfully repeated a few dazs later with the use of a soft tipped wire to cross the pulmonary valve.
