Epicardial cardioverter defibrillator implantation due to post-fontan ventricular tachycardia
Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2020 Long-term survival of patients submitted to a Fontan procedure is reduced because of arrhythmias. Late post-Fontan ventricular tachycardia is extremely rare, but it can be fatal. Consequently, the implantation of an implantable cardioverter defibrillator
