RESUMO
In infracardiac, infradiaphragmatic total anomalous pulmonary venous connection, all four pulmonary veins connect to a descending vertical vein that usually drains to the portal vein or one of its tributaries. Obstruction is common, and definitive treatment is surgical repair. We present a case of late-diagnosed infradiaphragmatic total anomalous pulmonary venous connection in a premature neonate who was too high risk for surgery and underwent palliative stenting of the venous duct. We demonstrate the feasibility of a transhepatic approach when umbilical access is no longer available.

In select patients, transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement through a percutaneous approach can be challenging because of complicated anatomy or small patient size. In these patients, especially those weighing <20 kg, hybrid perventricular valve delivery may provide a preferred alternative approach. (Level of Difficulty: Intermediate.).
