Postoperative graft thrombosis in Fontan procedure

The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2000
Fontan repair could be used as the definitive palliation in many forms of complex cyanotic congenital heart disease. But thrombosis can occur after a modified Fontan operation (right atrium-right ventricular connection with a conduit). Appropriate

Computational Rheo‐Hydrodynamic Analysis of Non‐Newtonian Blood Flow Through a Tilted Ellipsoidal Stenosed Vascular Segment

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2026.
Non‐Newtonian blood flow through multiple tilted ellipsoidal stenoses is numerically investigated using the DeKee‐Turcotte‐Papanastasiou model. The results reveal asymmetric velocity fields, elevated wall shear stress, significant pressure drops, and shear‐dependent thermal effects, highlighting the critical hemodynamic risks associated with eccentric ...

Association of Fontan Circulation With Gut Microbiome Derived Straight and Branched Short Chain Fatty Acids

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Volume 41, Issue 6, Page 1825-1836, June 2026.
Adults with Fontan circulation (n = 20) and matched controls underwent body composition, frailty testing, CPET, and NICaS hemodynamics. Plasma short‐chain fatty acids were quantified by LC–MS/MS. Fontan patients had higher straight and branched SCFAs, correlating with lower muscle mass, greater frailty, reduced VO2max, and worse resting/postexercise ...

Colchicine in post-operative Fontan patients

Cardiology in the Young, 2022
AbstractBackground:Prolonged effusions post-Fontan procedure are associated with morbidity. Fontan patients have higher pro-inflammatory cytokines in chest tube drainage compared to controls. Colchicine, an anti-inflammatory medication, decreases effusions in adults after cardiac surgery.

A Dynamic 3D Human Liver Sinusoid Model for Mechanistic Interrogation of Fontan‐Associated Liver Disease

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 30, 28 May 2026.
This study presents a perfusable 3D bioengineered liver sinusoid platform that integrates biofabrication, 3D cell culture, controlled hemodynamics, and multiparametric characterization to model Fontan‐associated liver disease. By decoupling pressure and hypoxia effects, the system reveals early mechanobiological and profibrotic responses under ...

Phenotyping of Fontan‐Associated Renal Physiology and Disease

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 2, April 2026.
In patients with a Fontan circulation, both kidney function and glomerular injury progressively decline with age, with a stronger decline than in healthy individuals. Additionally, intrarenal haemodynamics in patients with a Fontan circulation demonstrate decreased venous and arterial compliance, evident through elevated venous impedance and renal ...

REgistry Of Catheter AbLation After Congenital Heart Disease Surgery(REAL‐CHD Registry)

Journal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
Catheter ablation for postoperative CHD‐related arrhythmias is increasingly performed in Japan and can be achieved with acceptable safety. ABSTRACT Background Advances in surgical management have improved long‐term survival in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD), leading to a growing population of adults with postoperative arrhythmias. However,

Review of rhythm disturbances in patient after fontan completion: epidemiology, management, and surveillance

Frontiers in Pediatrics
PurposeThe Fontan operation is commonly associated with alterations in heart rhythms, both tachycardic and bradycardic. Despite modifications to attempt to mitigate these complications, arrythmias still frequently occur.
