An alternate technique of performing total cavopulmonary connection without cardiopulmonary bypass [PDF]

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2023
Total cavopulmonary connection (Fontan) without using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) may be superior to Fontan on CPB. In the experience of many, a Fontan operation without CPB may be associated with a reduced need for inotropic support, improved outcomes ...

Recurrent sustained atrial arrhythmias and thromboembolism in Fontan patients with total cavopulmonary connection [PDF]

International Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2021
Background: Total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC) is associated with a lower risk of incident atrial arrhythmias as compared to atriopulmonary Fontan, but the risk of recurrent atrial arrhythmias is unknown in this population.
