AB  - Right heart failure is not uncommon in the patients with repaired tetralogy of 
      Fallot (rTOF). Although commercialized transcatheter stent-mounted pulmonary 
      valves are effective treatment options for improving functional class and for 
      normalizing right ventricular volumes in such patients, they are not available in 
      Taiwan. To provide a handmade alternative, we report our successful transcatheter 
      attempt of a handmade assembled left pulmonary artery valved stent graft 
      implantation in a 61-year-old man who had a history of rTOF and severe branch 
      pulmonary regurgitation.
