Abstract
Implantation of a pulmonary valve is possible in ewes through a hybrid approach when the right ventricular outflow tract exceeds 22 mm in diameter. This involves both surgeons and interventionists and allows for a staged procedure in which the valvulation is performed percutaneously or, for a combined hybrid approach, in which the valve is implanted off pump transventricularly during the same operation.
