Functional hepatic deterioration determined by 13C-methacetin breath test is associated with impaired hemodynamics and late Fontan failure in adults

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundDespite improved survival a substantial number of Fontan patients eventually develop late failure. Fontan-associated liver disease (FALD) is the most frequent end-organ dysfunction.

Transcatheter occlusion of a hepatic vein-to-left atrium fistula: Should we close venovenous collateral vessels following Fontan operation?

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2022
Right-to-left shunt due to abnormal systemic venous drainage to the left heart is among the causes of hypoxemia following Fontan operation. There are conflicting data regarding the closure of the venovenous collaterals (VVCs) post-Fontan, showing ...

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 ...
