JACC Case Rep. 2022 Oct 19;4(20):1366-1369. doi: 10.1016/j.jaccas.2022.07.022.

Abstract

We present a case of right ventricle to pulmonary artery hybrid perforation and stenting in a patient with pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect major aortopulmonary collaterals and diminutive native pulmonary arteries, then discuss how it compares with established approaches. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.).
