Abstract
Many forces are once again bringing the congenital heart surgeon and interventional cardiologist, and the teams that support them, ever closer together in what has been deemed Hybrid Approaches to congenital heart disease. The goal of these hybrid approaches is to improve the quantity and quality of life for the patients we serve.
