Heart transplantation and in‐hospital outcomes in adult congenital heart disease patients with Fontan: A decade nationwide analysis from 2004 to 2014

Journal of cardiac surgery, 2020
Treatment of adult congenital heart disease patients who require advanced therapies remains challenging due to high perioperative and wait‐list mortality and limited donors. Patients palliated with Fontan are at the highest risk of early mortality due to
