Case report: PICC line for a toddler with bilateral bidirectional Glenn shunt, Fontan circulation, and persistent left superior vena cava [PDF]
Performing peripherally inserted central catheters for children with bilateral bidirectional Glenn shunt, Fontan circulation, and persistent left superior vena cava differs from those with normal central venous anatomy.

Transvenous pacing through the pulmonary valve in a patient with cyanotic congenital heart disease after Glenn shunt – A case report [PDF]
Bradyarrhythmia requiring pacing is infrequently encountered in patients with complex cyanotic congenital heart disease. Even though epicardial pacing is the preferred mode, rarely, a need for endocardial lead implantation arises.Patients with ...

Systemic venous collaterals and congenital portosystemic shunt: Overlooked causes of Glenn shunt failure—A case report [PDF]
Glenn shunt dysfunction in single‑ventricle palliation is multifactorial. Although aorto‑pulmonary collaterals are usually considered, systemic veno‑venous collaterals and congenital portosystemic shunts (CPSS) may be underrecognized causes (1,7).

Anesthetic considerations for video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery in a child with Glenn shunt for thoracic duct ligation and pleurodesis [PDF]
Glenn shunt is an anastomosis between superior vena cava and right pulmonary artery to palliate patients with single ventricle physiology of the heart. Chylothorax is a frequent and troublesome complication after the creation of this shunt, which if not ...

Factors affecting the outcomes after bidirectional Glenn shunt: two decades of experience from a tertiary referral center [PDF]
Background Despite the improved management of patients with a single ventricle, the long-term outcomes are not optimal. We reported the outcomes of the bidirectional Glenn procedure (BDG) and factors affecting the length of hospital stay, operative ...

First Confirmed Case of Leadless Pacemaker Insertion via Bidirectional Glenn Shunt in Ebstein's Anomaly: A Novel Approach to Pacing Challenges. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Ebstein's anomaly presents unique pacing challenges due to complex anatomy and surgical history, often leading to transvenous lead complications. Case Presentation A 28‐year‐old male with Ebstein's anomaly, prior Danielson tricuspid valve repair, and bidirectional Glenn shunt presented with acute ventricular pacing loss from ...
