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 ...

Current Nationwide Landscape of Cardiac Surgery for Children With Trisomy 18 in Japan
ABSTRACT Despite the increasing number of retrospective cohorts describing successful cardiac surgery for children with trisomy 18, no consensus has been reached among healthcare providers regarding cardiac surgery in Japan. This study provided a benchmark to facilitate consensus building by assessing a nationwide surgical database in Japan. A total of

Reduced brain mammillary body volumes and memory deficits in adolescents who have undergone the Fontan procedure. [PDF]
BackgroundAdolescents with single ventricle heart disease (SVHD) who have undergone the Fontan procedure show cognitive/memory deficits. Mammillary bodies are key brain sites that regulate memory; however, their integrity in SVHD is unclear. We evaluated

Ventricular‐Arterial Function and Coupling in the Adult Fontan Circulation
Background In adult Fontan patients, ventricular or arterial dysfunction may impact homeostasis of the Fontan circulation and predispose to heart failure. We sought to characterize ventricular‐arterial (VA) properties in adult Fontan patients.
