Abstract:
14 living flaps in 8 children were used to repair for the congenital heart disease, because artificial material and xeno grafts were shrunk in growing children but living flaps were going to glow with children. It were possible to use the living flaps to reconstruct of pulmonary outflow in truncus arteriosus, for septoplasty in partial anomarous of pulmonary venous return and reconstruction of unloofed coronary sinus in endocardial defect with triatriatum and intraatrial tunnel in TCPC or Fontan type operation.
