When the Norwood procedure is conducted for the hypoplastic left heart syndrome using a
non-valved right ventricle (RV) to pulmonary artery (PA) shunt, diastolic regurgitation from …

Objective: The introduction of right ventricle to pulmonary artery (RV-PA) conduit in the
Norwood procedure for hypoplastic left heart syndrome resulted in a higher survival rate in …

OBJECTIVE: Stage one reconstruction (Norwood operation) for hypoplastic left heart
syndrome can be performed with either a modified Blalock–Taussig shunt or a right ventricle …

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess changes in early and late haemodynamic
status after the Norwood procedure (NP), caused by the implementation of right ventricle-to …

A hybrid procedure combining bilateral pulmonary artery banding with ductal stenting has
recently been used as stage I palliation for hypoplastic left heart syndrome. However, the …

Objective: Despite that surgical outcomes of patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome
have improved, one of the problems remaining is the high interstage mortality after a stage I …

BACKGROUND: Inadequate pulmonary blood flow through a right ventricle-to-pulmonary
artery (RV-PA) shunt early after the Norwood operation can be remedied by adding a …

Background—The balance of systemic, pulmonary, and coronary blood flow after the
Norwood operation for hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is critical to early survival. We …

Purposr This study created 3D CFD models of the Norwood procedure for hypoplastic left
heart syndrome (HLHS) using standard angiography and echocardiogram data to …

OBJECTIVES: The Norwood procedure with right ventricle–pulmonary artery conduit is
thought to improve postoperative hemodynamics in hypoplastic left heart syndrome, but its …
