Factors that influence the development of atrial flutter after the fontan operation [PDF]

, 1997
Objectives: Atrial flutter is a frequent, potentially fatal complication of the Fontan operation, but risk factors for its development are ill defined.

Central Nervous System Infections in Pediatric Solid Organ Transplant Recipients

Pediatric Transplantation, Volume 30, Issue 8, August 2026.
CNS infections in SOT recipients are rare and presentation can be subtle. Therefore, a low threshold for evaluation is warranted to minimize the associated mortality. ABSTRACT Background Solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients face an increased risk of central nervous system (CNS) infections due to immunosuppression.

Anesthetic Management for an Adult With Fontan Palliation During CPAP Titration and Cardiac Catheterization: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT We present the anesthetic management for a patient with single ventricle Fontan palliation undergoing simultaneous cardiac catheterization and CPAP titration, where the anesthetic ensured the pertinent goals of maintaining patient comfort, simulation of normal sleep, and preservation of physiologic conditions.

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 ...

Outcomes of the Fontan Operation in Patients with Ebstein’s Anomaly: Findings from a Binational Fontan Registry

Objectives: We sought to review the outcomes of patients with Ebstein’s anomaly (EA) after the Fontan operation. Methods: Patients with EA were identified from a large binational registry about the Fontan operation.

Quantification of ventricular unloading by 3D echocardiography in single ventricle of left ventricular morphology following superior cavo-pulmonary anastomosis and Fontan completion – a feasibility study

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2017
Background: Three-dimensional echocardiography. (3DE) is comparable to cardiac magnetic resonance imaging for estimating ventricular volume in congenital heart diseases.

Exercise Capacity, Endothelial Function, Muscle Mass, and Strength in Pediatric Patients With Fontan Circulation

CJC Pediatric &Congenital Heart Disease, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 119-128, June 2026.
Abstract Background Fontan circulation carries high morbidity and mortality, driven in part by impaired exercise capacity, muscle deficits, and endothelial dysfunction. In a pediatric cohort with Fontan circulation, we examined associations between exercise capacity, endothelial function, and muscle parameters before enrollment in a randomized exercise

Deterioration of functional abilities in children surviving the Fontan operation

, 2018
Functional abilities are needed for activities of daily living. In general, these skills expand with age. We hypothesised that, in contrast to what is normally expected, children surviving the Fontan may have deterioration of functional abilities, and ...

Evolution of Staged Approach for Fontan Operation

Journal of Nippon Medical School, 2002
During the early development of the Fontan operation, a number of physiologic and anatomical limits were proposed as selection criteria, and two criteria, pulmonary vascular resistance and ventricular function, have been important in predicting surgical outcome.
