Several strategies are now possible. The aim of this study is to review our hybrid PVR strategy in a complex patient cohort, outlining a variety of approaches employed in our centre.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>METHODS<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>We performed a retrospective review of infants and small children who underwent hybrid PVR between May 2017 and April 2019 in a single tertiary cardiology centre.

Eight patients had perventricular approach (4 sternotomy and 4 subxiphoid) and 2 patients had surgically sutured valve. Six patients underwent cardiopulmonary bypass for associated lesions. Three had insertion of the valve into conduits and 7 were deployed into native right ventricular outflow tracts. The pulmonary valve was successfully inserted in all 10 patients with no mortality. Postprocedural complications included paravalvar leak in 2 patients, suspected endocarditis in 1 patient who developed early valve regurgitation and wound infection in 1 patient.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Several approaches to hybrid PVR may be employed in small children with a high success rate.
