Abstract:
Takedown and reconstruction of a previous Glenn anastomosis at the time of repair was performed in 1 child with pulmonary atresia and ventricular septal defect and in 3 children with transposition of the great arteries, ventricular septal defect, and pulmonary stenosis. All 4 survived and showed excellent clinical results. The surgical technique and postoperative hemodynamic and lung scintigraphic data are presented.
