OBJECTIVES Fontan failure (FF) represents a growing and challenging indication for paediatric orthotopic heart transplantation (OHT). The aim of this study was to identify predictors of the best mid-term outcome in OHT after FF. METHODS Twenty-year multi-institutional retrospective analysis on OHT for FF. RESULTS Between 1991 and 2011, 61 patients, mean age 15.0 ± 9.7 years, underwent OHT f...
OBJECTIVE Evaluation of the long-term clinical results of the Fontan operation in patients with tricuspid atresia. METHODS A retrospective analysis was made at the Instituto de Cardiologia do Rio Grande do Sul (Institute of Cardiology of Rio Grande do Sul), from August 1980 through January 2000, of 25 patients with a long-term follow-up, out of a series of 36 patients who underwent the Fontan...
BACKGROUND Palliative treatment with the Fontan procedure has greatly improved survival for children with functionally univentricular heart. Since Fontan performed the first successful operation, the procedure has evolved and is now performed as Total Cavo-Pulmonary Connection (TCPC).An increasing prevalence and longer life expectancy of TCPC patients have raised new challenges. The survivors a...

To determine its potential impact on perioperative surgical management intraoperative ultrasound examination (cross sectional imaging, colour flow mapping, pulsed and continuous wave Doppler) was used in 16 consecutive patients undergoing a Fontan-type procedure. Epicardial cross sectional imaging before bypass defined the precise intracardiac morphology in 15 of 16 patients. The preoperative m...
End-stage heart failure is a growing problem associated with high mortality, using conventional medical care.1 Although heart transplantation remains the gold standard therapy for end-stage heart failure, it is a limited resource that is not applicable to a large portion of heart failure patients, particularly the elderly. An alternative strategy for patients who do not meet standard heart tran...
OBJECTIVE [corrected] The operative outcome of the Norwood procedure for hypoplastic left heart syndrome is still not satisfactory. Conflicting reports concern factors associated with early Norwood procedure mortality and the reasons for the instability after surgery are not sufficiently understood. The purpose of this study was to determine some perioperative factors influencing early (30 days...
