Abstract
Hybrid approach becomes a promising conception of an alternative treatment for muscular ventricular septal defects (VSD)
closure in infants. In this paper we report epicardial echocardiography imaging that enabled successful hybrid procedure
performed in premature infant referred for surgical correction of a large perimembraneous VSD with simultaneous perventricular
approach for concomitant muscular VSD.
