Relationship of Ventricular Morphology and Atrioventricular Valve Function to Long-Term Outcomes Following Fontan Procedures

Background The influence of ventricular morphology on Fontan outcomes is controversial. Objectives This study hypothesized that dysfunction of the single right ventricle (RV) and right atrioventricular valve regurgitation (AVVR) increases over time and adversely impacts late outcomes following a Fontan operation. A single-center retrospective study was performed. Methods From 1985 through 2018,…
