We sought to compare these strategies with an emphasis on survival and reintervention after stage II and subsequent Fontan completion. METHODS AND RESULTS Of 110 neonates with functionally single-ventricle physiology who underwent stage I palliation between 2004 and 2010, 75 (69%) infants...

This sterile bovine pericardial patch is not expensive and can be tailor-made.
