Abstract

A case is presented of a newborn with tetralogy of Fallot and aortic coarctation. Progressive right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) obstruction required urgent surgical therapy. Coronary artery crossing the outflow tract made ventriculotomy impossible. Hybrid RVOT stent implantation was performed, providing effective pulmonary flow and enabling postponing of corrective jumping graft implantation.
