Various biological valved conduits have been used to treat the obstructions of the right ventricle. These conduits have different rates and etiologies for conduit stenosis during early- and long-term follow-up. We report on three cases of unusual intra-luminal peeling of a Dacron conduit leading to various types of conduit obstruction.
