Outcomes of bidirectional Glenn surgery done without prior cardiac catheterization
Background Cardiac catheterization is usually done routinely in patients with univentricular hearts before palliative Bidirectional Glenn (BDG) surgery. The objective of this study was to compare the outcomes of patients with physiological univentricular

Autonomous Fontan pump: Computational feasibility studyCentral MessagePerspective
Objective: After Fontan palliation, patients with single-ventricle physiology are committed to chronic circulatory inefficiency for the duration of their lives. This is due in large part to the lack of a subpulmonary ventricle.

Background Double chambered right ventricle (DCRV) is a relatively rare congenital heart disease, characterized by the abnormal division of the right ventricle into a high-pressure inlet and low-pressure outlet by anomalous muscle bundles.

Cardiac Laterality: Surgical Results of Right Atrial Isomerism
Right atrial isomerism (RAI) is a complex entity with varying diagnostic and treatment outcomes due to its rarity. Treatment options range from palliative to corrective surgeries, resulting in heterogeneous outcomes.

Long-term outcomes of patients with single ventricle who do not undergo Fontan palliation
Background: Patients with single ventricle (SV) without Fontan palliation are uncommon, and their long-term outcomes remain unclear. Methods: Retrospective study of 35 adult patients with SV without Fontan from two tertiary centers.

Background This study aimed to assess impact of atrioventricular valve (AVV) regurgitation onset, timing of AVV repair (AVVr), ventricular morphology, and era effect on AVVr outcomes in a single ventricle population. Methods A retrospective review of 155

Current state of the art in hypoplastic left heart syndrome
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is a complex congenital heart condition in which a neonate is born with an underdeveloped left ventricle and associated structures. Without palliative interventions, HLHS is fatal.

Non‐Invasive Assessment of Endothelial Dysfunction and Arterial Stiffness in Fontan Circulation
The Fontan procedure is the definitive treatment for complex congenital heart disease, creating a circulation without a subpulmonary ventricle. This altered hemodynamic state negatively affects endothelial function, contributing to progressive organ dysfunction and long‐term morbidity.
