DOI: 10.1007/s11748-020-01407-1
Abstract: As several complications can develop after the atriopulmonary Fontan procedure, total cavopulmonary connection conversion is often considered. We report two cases in which total cavopulmonary connection conversion was performed with a modified Glenn procedure. We… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.echo.2017.01.008
Abstract: Introduction: Single‐ventricle patients with elevated pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) or end‐diastolic pressure (EDP) are excluded from undergoing total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC). However, a subset of patients deemed to be at acceptable risk experience prolonged length… read more here.
