Management of failing bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt: Influence of additional systemic-to-pulmonary-artery shunt with classic Glenn physiologyCentral MessagePerspective [PDF]
Objectives: Severe hypoxemia in the early postoperative period after bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt (BCPS) is a critical complication. We aimed to evaluate patients who underwent additional systemic to pulmonary shunt and septation of central ...

Systemic venous collaterals and congenital portosystemic shunt: Overlooked causes of Glenn shunt failure—A case report [PDF]
Glenn shunt dysfunction in single‑ventricle palliation is multifactorial. Although aorto‑pulmonary collaterals are usually considered, systemic veno‑venous collaterals and congenital portosystemic shunts (CPSS) may be underrecognized causes (1,7).

Late-Onset Third Degree Atrioventricular Block in Adult With Surgically Corrected Ebstein Anomaly: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Late‐onset third‐degree atrioventricular (AV) block is a rare life‐threatening complication that may develop years after surgical correction of Ebstein anomaly. Effective management depends on routine cardiac monitoring and timely intervention with an epicardial permanent pacemaker.
