# Hybrid Stent Implantation Into Right Ventricular Outflow Tract in a Newborn With Tetralogy of Fallot

## TL;DR

A newborn with heart defects received a hybrid stent to improve blood flow and delay major surgery.

## Contribution

The use of hybrid stent implantation in a newborn with complex heart defects is described.

## Key findings

- Hybrid stent implantation effectively improved pulmonary flow in the newborn.
- The procedure allowed postponing corrective surgery due to anatomical constraints.

## 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.
