AbstractWe report the case of a 19-month-old girl with hypoplastic left heart syndrome who, after Norwood stage 1 and 2 procedures, developed recurrent interatrial obstruction and was treated effectively with stent implantation. The stent was explanted electively 14 months after implantation and showed almost no endothelium formation. Therefore, there was no need for redo atrioseptectomy and the surgical intervention could be staged electively.
