  • Title: Total cavo-pulmonary connection without foreign material for asplenic heart associated with partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection.
    Author: Agematsu K, Naito Y, Aoki M, Fujiwara T.
    Journal: Interact Cardiovasc Thorac Surg; 2008 Apr; 7(2):344-6. PubMed ID: 18057075.
    Abstract:
    The presented case was a 3-year-old boy diagnosed with asplenia (SLL), double outlet right ventricle, pulmonary stenosis, atrioventricular septal defect, hypoplastic left ventricle and partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection to the superior vena cava. Partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection was repaired by translocation of pulmonary artery to avoid pulmonary venous obstruction when Glenn anastomosis was performed. Total cavo-pulmonary connection was established by re-routing the inferior vena cava to pulmonary artery using the atrial septal remnant and the left atrium free wall flap.
