A very low birth weight neonate (1.2 kg) with total anomalous pulmonary venous connection and obstructed infracardiac pulmonary venous drainage was treated by stenting of the ductus venosus via a transjugular approach. With one reintervention to dilate an in‐stent stenosis, the palliative stented situation stabilized the patient for as long as three months until definitive surgical correction at a weight of 2 kg. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
