Abstract:BackgroundStaged repair is common for complex conotruncal defects, often involving bidirectional Glenn (BDG) procedure. Following the cavopulmonary shunt, both Fontan completion and biventricular conversion (BiVC) serve as definitive approaches. The optimal strategy remains controversial.MethodsThe baseline, perioperative and follow-up data were obtained for all paediatric patients with conotruncal defects who underwent BDG procedure as palliation in Fuwai Hospital from 2013 to 2022. Patients with single ventr… Show more
