A 4-year-old girl with pulmonary regurgitation after complete repair of tetralogy of Fallot, underwent an alternative surgical repair for pulmonary valve replacement. Hand-sewn trileaflet valve reconstruction using expanded polytetrafluoroethylene membrane is a feasible method for pulmonary regurgitation in such a young child in whom a large-sized bioprosthetic valve cannot be implanted.

The Bovine jugular vein (BJV) graft for right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction (RVOT) is limited applied due to possible graft failure. In this study, we reported the clinical application of simplified hand-sewn trileaflet valved conduit as an alternative for BJV graft. We retrospectively included 68 patients underwent 76 conduits implantation including 22 new simplified hand-sewn trileaflet valved conduits (Group A) and 54 BJV grafts (Group B).
