The role of an additional ventricle in patients with a functional single ventricle undergoing the Fontan operation has been debated due to conflicting data. Our goal was to report our experience with Fontan circulation for complex congenital heart disease, with a focus on the influence that an additional ventricular chamber may have on early and long-term clinical outcomes.

Abstract

The role of an additional ventricle in patients with a functional single ventricle undergoing the Fontan operation has been debated due to conflicting data. Our goal was to report our experience with Fontan circulation for complex congenital heart disease, with a focus on the influence that an additional ventricular chamber may have on early and long-term clinical outcomes.
