Laryngopharyngeal dysfunction after the Norwood procedure [PDF]
We sought to evaluate the incidence and significance of recurrent laryngeal nerve and swallowing dysfunction after a Norwood procedure compared with that after biventricular aortic arch reconstruction.From April 2003 through December 2004, 36 neonates underwent a Norwood procedure; 33 of 36 had postoperative fiberoptic laryngoscopy and modified barium ...

Current state of the art in hypoplastic left heart syndrome
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is a complex congenital heart condition in which a neonate is born with an underdeveloped left ventricle and associated structures. Without palliative interventions, HLHS is fatal.

Using cardiac magnetic resonance and computational modelling to assess the systemic right ventricle following different Norwood procedures: a dual centre study [PDF]
BackgroundThe Norwood procedure for hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is performed either via a right ventricle to pulmonary artery (RVPA) shunt or a modified Blalock Taussig (MBT) shunt. A ventriculotomy is used to insert the RVPA shunt and results

The Role Of Shunt In The Norwood Procedure
Objectives: In this study we observed that the effect of post-Norwood 3.5 mm modified BTS(mBTS and 5 mm right ventricle to pulmonary (Sano modification) shunt models on clinical outcomes. Patients and Methods: 54 patients who were operated in our hospital between 2011and 2020 years, were included in our study and this is a ...

Mortality and neurodevelopmental outcome at 1 year of age comparing hybrid and Norwood procedures [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Neonates with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) are at risk of high mortality and neurodevelopmental morbidity. As an alternative to Norwood-type stage I palliation, the hybrid procedure has been developed.

Considerations in biventricular repair after the Norwood procedure [PDF]
The Norwood procedure can be applicable as a first stage palliation in children who can eventually undergo a biventricular repair. Although usual management of these patients is a primary neonatal repair, in selected patients staged approach with a Norwood procedure in the neonatal period followed by a Rastelli procedure in the infancy for conversion ...
