Background A clear consensus regarding the optimal source of pulmonary blood flow in
patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome undergoing the Norwood procedure is lacking …

Background. In the Norwood procedure, a conduit is performed either from the subclavian
artery to the pulmonary artery, Blalock–Taussig shunt (mBTs), or from the right ventricle to …

OBJECTIVES Our goal was to assess the efficacy of managing pulmonary blood flow from
the Norwood procedure with a right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery (RV–PA) conduit until …

Background: Stage I palliation of hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) and its variants is
usually performed by a Norwood operation. The management of pulmonary blood flow …

Background—Diastolic run off into the pulmonary circulation and labile coronary perfusion
are thought to contribute to morbidity and mortality after the Norwood procedure (NP). We …

Objective The study objective was to evaluate the outcomes of the cavopulmonary shunt
after the Norwood procedure with a particular focus on age, weight, and whether surgery …

Improved outcomes of the Norwood procedure in hypoplastic left heart syndrome have been
achieved by the manipulation of the pulmonary: systemic flow ratio (Qp: Qs) in the early post …

Over the last quarter of a century, improvements in antenatal diagnosis, preoperative care,
neonatal surgical techniques, arch reconstruction, cardiopulmonary bypass strategies …

OBJECTIVES This study aimed to compare pulmonary artery (PA) growth between patients
who received a right ventricle-to-PA (RV–PA) shunt and those who received a modified …

The past decade has seen a substantial improvement in the outcome following surgical
palliation for hypoplastic left heart syndrome. This has been attributed to modifications in the …
