Fontan Operation and the Single Ventricle
The Fontan operation has gone through multiple incarnations since Fontan and Baudet's initial description in 1971. Through the medical dossier of a patient with a single ventricle, we plot the history of medical, surgical, and percutaneous interventions over the past 40 years, specifically focusing on the Fontan procedure, its development, indications,

The adult with a Fontan operation
Current Cardiology Reports, 2007Since 1971, the Fontan operation has been performed for the repair of single-ventricle physiology. This ingenious operation commits a single ventricle to the systemic circulation and takes advantage of cardiovascular and respiratory physiology to propel deoxygenated blood to the lungs, thus minimizing right-to-left shunting and cyanosis.

Pregnancy in patients with the Fontan operation.
Abstract Improved survival rates for patients with a Fontan circulation has allowed more women with this complex cardiac physiology to contemplate pregnancy. However, pregnancy in women with a Fontan circulation is associated with a high risk of adverse maternal and foetal outcomes, high rates of miscarriage, and preterm delivery ...

Experiences with the Fontan Operation
The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 1982Up to December 1980 we performed 21 Fontan operations: 8 for tricuspid atresia and 13 for a functional monoventricle. Although palliative, the operation is currently a good method of treating tricuspid atresia. In our experience, the use of a sufficiently large atriopulmonary valved conduit assures a more satisfactory immediate postoperative ...

Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Annual of the Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2003
In hearts with a functional single ventricle, cavity volume and myocardial muscle mass increase as a consequence of the excessive volume load associated with parallel pulmonary and systemic circulations. The hemi-Fontan operation was conceived as a means of accomplishing early reduction of the volume work of the single ventricle, in anticipation of ...
