Abstract

A boy diagnosed with persistent truncus arteriosus and severe truncal valve regurgitation had uncontrollable heart failure. Thus, truncal valve repair, ventricular septal defect closure, and right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction were performed on the second day of life. We report about a neonate with severe truncal valve regurgitation who was successfully treated with autologous pericardial truncal valve leaflet reconstruction.
