Decreased left heart flow in fetal lambs causes left heart hypoplasia and pro-fibrotic tissue remodeling
Abstract Low blood flow through the fetal left heart is often conjectured as an etiology for hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). To investigate if a decrease in left heart flow results in growth failure, we generate left ventricular inflow obstruction (LVIO) in mid-gestation fetal lambs by impla...
