Excerpt

“A new surgical procedure has been used which transmits the whole vena caval blood to the lungs, while only oxygenated blood returns to the left heart. The right atrium is, in this way, ‘ventriclized’, to direct the inferior vena caval blood to the left lung, the right pulmonary artery receiving the superior vena caval blood through a cava-pulmonary anastomosis”. By this statement, Fontan and Baudet started their article detailing the first Fontan procedure in 1971 [6]. …
