The impact of pulmonary artery size on midterm outcomes after nonfenestrated Fontan operation
We sought to identify the impact of pulmonary artery size on outcomes after nonfenestrated total cavopulmonary connection. In a subgroup of patients with right-sided bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt, the impact of each branch pulmonary artery size was individually determined.Long-term outcome of preadolescents, adolescents, and adult patients undergoing total cavopulmonary connection
Patients with a single ventricle infrequently undergo total cavopulmonary connection as preadolescents, adolescents, or adults. The purpose of this study was to clarify the characteristics of this cohort and to analyze the factors influencing outcomes.
