3 patients underwent implantation of valve # 25 and 2 subjects received valve # 23, with all cases yielding good immediate results. The haemodynamic parameters of the implanted prosthesis were optimal. In all cases, the significant gradient was absent and regurgitation did not exceed grade I. There was no in-hospital mortality. The method of hybrid prosthetic repair of the pulmonary valve via the transapical right-ventricular access from the left lateral mini-thoracotomy was aimed at reducing potential risks of artificial circulation, also contributing to a significant decrease in the traumatic nature of surgical treatment of patients requiring a repeat intervention for pulmonary valve pathology.
