Neo-aorta reconstruction with retained stented patch in Norwood procedure after hybrid palliation of high-risk hypoplastic left heart syndrome: a case report.

Cardiology in the Young
Hybrid procedure of hypoplastic left heart syndrome, comprising ductus arteriosus stenting and bilateral pulmonary artery banding, is a good surgical option for initial palliative procedure for high-risk patients for Norwood procedure.

Stage I Norwood Procedure

2018
For infants with HLHS, pulmonary vascular resistance is high, often due to the presence of severe pulmonary hypertension; therefore, Fontan surgery should not be performed immediately, but in stages. At present, three stages of the staged surgery are advisable: Stage I Norwood surgery (neonatal), Stage II Norwood surgery (6 months after Stage I surgery)

Postoperative Management After the Norwood Procedure

Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery: Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Annual, 1998
Staged reconstruction has become the preferred approach to hypoplastic left heart syndrome at many centers in the United States. The overall results of this strategy are most adversely affected by a high mortality at the initial stage, the Norwood procedure.

Standardization of the Norwood Procedure Improves Outcomes in a Medium-Sized Volume Center

World journal for pediatric & congenital heart surgery
The Norwood operation has become common practice to palliate patients with hypoplastic left heart structures. Surgical technique and postoperative care have improved; yet, there remains significant attrition prior to stage II palliation. The objective of

Modified Norwood procedure for hypoplastic left heart syndrome

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1995
Since June 1994, we have used a modification of the Norwood technique in 13 patients presenting with the hypoplastic left heart syndrome or similar variants.This technique involves coarctation repair, arch reconstruction, and creation of a neo-ascending aorta using autologous great vessel tissue only. Pulmonary blood flow is provided by a central shunt

Surgical Management of Norwood Procedure for Atypical Aortic Arch

World journal for pediatric & congenital heart surgery
Background: Postoperative restenosis of the aortic arch after the Norwood procedure is still an important complication that significantly affects surgical outcomes. The rarity of the Norwood procedure for atypical aortic morphology means appropriate arch

Norwood Procedures and Sano Modification

2013
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is characterized by hypoplasia of the left heart and varying degrees of hypoplasia or atresia of the aortic valve and ascending aorta. It is included in the spectrum of conditions that can result in a cardiac circulation with a functionally single ventricle. Left untreated, HLHS is invariably lethal.

Stage I Modified Norwood Procedure

2018
Two approaches can be taken in the Stage I modified Norwood procedure: (1) For an extremely hyperplastic ascending aorta, its diameter is only 2–3 mm, that is, much smaller than the aortic sinus. The classic Norwood ascending aorta formation method is likely to cause sinotubular junction stenosis, resulting in poor coronary artery perfusion.

Isolated left ventricular ischemia after the Norwood procedure

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2002
Aortic atresia is the most severe variant of hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), and has been associated with significant mortality after stage I palliation. Coronary artery abnormalities are more prominent in this group of patients, especially in the presence of a patent mitral valve.

Proximal Conduit Obstruction After Sano Modified Norwood Procedure

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2005
Sano and colleagues recently described a modification of first stage palliation for hypoplastic left heart syndrome utilizing a right ventricle to pulmonary artery conduit. Preliminary results are favorable, but experience with this technique is limited.
