Case report and review of the literature: Successful transition from acute continuous veno-venous hemodiafiltration therapy to chronic peritoneal dialysis in a chronically ventilated child with hypoplastic left heart syndrome following fontan

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2022
Fontan palliation depends on low pulmonary vascular resistance in order to maintain pulmonary blood flow and adequate oxygenation. This physiology results in higher central venous pressures with limited renal perfusion pressure and cardiac output ...

An alternate technique of performing total cavopulmonary connection without cardiopulmonary bypass

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2023
Total cavopulmonary connection (Fontan) without using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) may be superior to Fontan on CPB. In the experience of many, a Fontan operation without CPB may be associated with a reduced need for inotropic support, improved outcomes ...

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) Support in Special Patient Populations—The Bidirectional Glenn and Fontan Circulations

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2018
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a support modality used within the pediatric cardiac ICU population as a bridge to recovery or decision in the setting of acute myocardial decompensation, support for combined cardiopulmonary failure or in ...

The failing Fontan

Indian Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2020
Nearly 50 years back, Francis Fontan pioneered an operation for tricuspid atresia that bears his name today. The operation has since undergone numerous modifications and continues to be widely applied to an array of single ventricles. Despite restoring normal oxygen levels in the body, the operation creates a neoportal system where adequate cardiac ...

Biomarkers and the Fontan Circulation [PDF]

Journal of the American Heart Association, 2016
Although the dramatically improved survival of children with single‐ventricle heart disease with Fontan circulation in the recent era is a tremendous accomplishment in pediatric cardiology and cardiac surgery, it has been accompanied by a growing realization that Fontan circulation is largely ...

Image_2_A Multimodal Score Accurately Classifies Fontan Failure and Late Mortality in Adult Fontan Patients.pdf

, 2022
ObjectivesDespite the outstanding success of the Fontan operation, it is a palliative procedure and a substantial number of patients experience late failure of the Fontan circulation. Clinical presentation and hemodynamic phenotypes of Fontan failure are

Fontan procedure and Fontan-associated liver diseases.

, 2021
After the Fontan procedure, the hepatic venous flow empties directly into the Fontan circuit; thus the liver is susceptible to the effects of central venous hypertension.

Surgical thoracic duct decompression: The right choice for Fontan-associated protein-losing enteropathy?Central MessagePerspective

JTCVS Techniques
Objective: Protein-losing enteropathy is among the most debilitating complications of Fontan circulation. Central venous hypertension increases lymphatic pressure in the thoracic duct, potentially leading to significant intestinal protein loss.
