Failure of the Fontan Circulation

Heart Failure Clinics, 2014
The essence of a Fontan circuit is the creation of the Fontan "neoportal system," which allows for oxygenation at near normal levels, but at the cost of a chronic state of systemic venous congestion and decreased cardiac output. The heart, while still the engine of the circuit, cannot compensate for this major flow restriction: the ventricle has lost ...

Smaller Fontan Pathway is Associated with Fontan Failure

Section on Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery Program, 2021
Background The Fontan circulation is vulnerable to any flow restriction in the Fontan pathway. We measured the minimal cross-sectional area (CSA) of the Fontan circuit via cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) and assessed associations with physiologic indices and outcomes.
