  • Title: Modified Starnes procedure in a neonate with severe tricuspid regurgitation.
    Author: Muralidaran A, Kim RW, Kopf GS, Pietris NP, Weeks BP, Starnes VA, Shinoka T.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2012 Feb; 93(2):658-9. PubMed ID: 22269736.
    Abstract:
    We report a modification of the Starnes technique for palliating severe tricuspid regurgitation associated with a dysplastic right ventricle in a neonate, using a fenestrated pericardial patch allowing for unidirectional flow. The patient eventually underwent a successful Glenn shunt construction with a persistent reduction in right ventricle size at 1 year follow-up.
