The authors discuss an early hybrid cardiovascular intervention in a neonate with left-sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia and significant left heart hypoplasia. The operation included persistent ductus arteriosus stenting and right pulmonary artery calibrated banding (3.5 mm) to increase blood flow in the aorta and to decrease right ventricle overload and decrease blood pressure and overflow in pulmonary circulation. The operation improved the child's general condition and gained time for left ventricle growth and restoration of its function.
