Notas: Abstract Pulmonary stenosis (PE) is a hereditary congenital heart disease that consists of a narrowing of the pulmonary valve, pulmonary artery or right ventricular tract. It mainly affects dogs although it can also be observed in cats. It is a pathology that produces a right heart failure of fatal evolution if it persists over time. Depending on the type of defect, its severity, the ability for early diagnosis and the treatment adopted, the life of the patient can be considerably prolonged in case they are with an acceptable quality. In order to establish the most appropriate treatment in each case, it is essential to make an accurate diagnosis, being the echocardiographic examination the test of choice to categorize the defect. The type of pulmonary stenosis, its morphology and severity, the maximum blood flow velocity, the systolic pressure gradient and the degree of ventricular hypertrophy should be established. Likewise, the possible presence of a poststenotic dilatation of the pulmonary artery, a tricuspid regurgitation and / or other cardiac malformations that could aggravate the pathology should be determined. Transthoracic ultrasound and cardiac catheterization, among other diagnostic techniques, can provide additional information. This work consists in reviewing the state of the art of pulmonary stenosis, centered on the etiology, pathophysiology, clinical, diagnosis and categorization of the defect according to its severity, the degree of evolution, the clinical consequences the medical, surgical and interventional treatments applied today.
