The convergent cavopulmonary connection: A novel and efficient configuration of Fontan to accommodate mechanical supportCentral MessagePerspective

Objective: The current total cavopulmonary connection Fontan has competing inflows and outflows, creating hemodynamic inefficiencies that contribute to Fontan failure and complicate placement and efficiency of mechanical circulatory support. We propose a novel convergent cavopulmonary connection (CC...
