Key result
Hybrid implantation of a transcatheter pulmonary valve supported by preprocedural 3D-model planning was successfully performed in 100% (8/8) of patients with transannular patch repair.

Supports feasibility of hybrid transcatheter pulmonary valve implantation post-transannular patch; leaves open larger prospective validation before adoption.

Does a hybrid approach with 3D RVOT modeling allow for successful transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement in patients following transannular patch repair of tetralogy of Fallot?
A hybrid approach using preprocedural 3D modeling enables successful transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement in tetralogy of Fallot patients with prior transannular patch repair who are traditionally not candidates for the procedure.
Phillips et al. (2015) conducted an observational in Tetralogy of Fallot following transannular patch repair with dysfunctional right ventricular outflow tract (n=8). Hybrid transcatheter pulmonary valve placement supported by 3D RVOT modeling was evaluated on Successful transcatheter valve implantation. Hybrid implantation of a transcatheter pulmonary valve supported by preprocedural 3D-model planning was successfully performed in 100% (8/8) of patients with transannular patch repair.
