Outcomes of bidirectional Glenn surgery done without prior cardiac catheterization
Background Cardiac catheterization is usually done routinely in patients with univentricular hearts before palliative Bidirectional Glenn (BDG) surgery. The objective of this study was to compare the outcomes of patients with physiological univentricular

Double shunt technique for hybrid palliation of hypoplastic left heart syndrome: a case report
We report a technique to palliate hypoplastic left heart syndrome, with no PDA stenting, but with double polytetrafluoroethylene shunt from pulmonary artery to ascending and descending aorta by combined thoracotomies.
