Varicocelectomy Restores Spermatogenesis in Fontan‐Associated Varicocele: A Two‐Case Series

IJU Case Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Fontan circulation may cause chronic venous hypertension and predispose patients to varicocele and infertility, but the clinical significance of surgical treatment remains unclear. Case Presentation We describe two patients with Fontan circulation who developed Fontan‐associated varicocele (FAVC).

Adverse impact of univentricular pacing for the patient with functional single ventricle: successful conversion to cardiac resynchronization therapy

Surgical Case Reports, 2020
Background In a Fontan candidate, univentricular pacing may cause delay in interventricular conduction, which induces asynchronous contraction. Cardiac resynchronization therapy is expected to be an effective mode of therapy in such a case.

Exploring the Lung–Liver Axis in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2026.
Among PAH patients without liver disease, subclinical liver dysfunction quantified by MELD‐Na associates with higher pulmonary vascular resistance and inflammatory activation of the pulmonary endothelium, characterized by an IL‐6‐centered transcriptional network enriched for leukocyte chemotaxis.

One and a half ventricle repair: clinical and animal study [PDF]

, 2013
SUMMARY Since the first description of the so called “one and a half ventricle repair”, published by Billingsly et al. in 1989 1, this type of correction has been applied to several complex congenital cardiac anomalies.

Quantification of Ventricular Volume Load in the Context of a Bidirectional Cavopulmonary Shunt: A Theoretical Treatise

, 2012
Background. Functional univentricular hearts are currently palliated by a staged procedure of which the bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt is usually the second stage.

Practical implementation of a concurrent trimming approach for manganin shunt resistors [PDF]

, 2015
As electrical energy prices continue to rise each year, accurate energy consumption monitoring becomes increasingly important. Therefore, there is a growing demand for high precision, low value shunt resistors in order to measure the flow of electrical ...

Half-turned truncal switch operation after single ventricle palliation in a patient with borderline left heart hypoplasia

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2020
Background The optimal surgical strategy for the correction of double outlet right ventricle (DORV, transposition of the great arteries [TGA] type) or TGA with ventricular septal defect (VSD), pulmonary stenosis (PS), and borderline small left ventricle (
