Early Experience with the Norwood Procedure

Cardiovascular Surgery, 1997
The improved results of the Norwood procedure have recently stimulated its widespread adoption in many centres. Since 1993, 19 infants with hypoplastic left heart syndrome or similar conditions underwent a first-stage Norwood procedure. Circulatory arrest time was significantly reduced by using a modified repair of the aortic arch. The early mortality

A new patch for the Norwood procedure

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1999
The problems related to the pediatric pulmonary homograft availability and the possible transmission of viral infection led us to design a new patch for aortic enlargement in the Norwood procedure for hypoplastic left heart syndrome. This sterile bovine pericardial patch is not expensive and can be tailor-made.

Norwood procedure without circulatory arrest

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1999
In the Norwood procedure for hypoplastic left heart yndrome, the distal descending thoracic aorta was cannulated just superior to the diaphragm through median sternotomy. In combination with cerebral perfusion through the graft anastomosed to the innominate artery, which was used as a systemic-to-pulmonary shunt later, this technique enabled us to ...

Comparison of Morbidity and Mortality Outcomes between Hybrid Palliation and Norwood Palliation Procedures for Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome: Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review

Journal of Clinical Medicine
Background/Objectives: Hybrid palliation (HP) procedures for hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) are increasing. Our objective was to compare mortality and morbidity following HP and NP (Norwood palliation) procedures.

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.

Comprehensive Aristotle Score: Implications for the Norwood Procedure

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2006
Aristotle score is emerging as a reliable tool to measure surgical performance. We estimated the comprehensive Aristotle score for the Norwood procedure, correlated it with survival, and considered its impact on surgical management of hypoplastic left heart syndrome.Comprehensive Aristotle score was retrospectively calculated for 39 consecutive Norwood
