DOI: 10.1016/s0735-1097(19)33669-1
Abstract: Infants that undergo a superior cavo-pulmonary connection (Glenn operation) frequently develop pulmonary arteriovenous malformations that cause cyanosis and clinical deterioration. The cause of abnormal pulmonary angiogenesis in these children is unknown but may be related… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s1047951121000913
Abstract: BACKGROUND Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations in single ventricle congenital heart disease are poorly understood. Previous studies investigating pulmonary arteriovenous malformations predominantly focus on patients with heterotaxy syndrome and interrupted inferior caval vein. It is unknown if… read more here.
