A 14-year-old male patient presented with cyanosis and tiredness. The patient had undergone a Glenn procedure at age 12 following the echocardiographic determination of a double inlet left ventricle, ventriculoarterial discordance, moderate valvular-subvalvular pulmonary artery stenosis, non-restrictive inlet ventricular septal defect and right ventricle hypoplasia; his oxygen saturation was 70...

O riginally described for the treatment of tricuspid atresia, the concept of ventricular exclusion and direction of systemic venous blood from the right atrium immediately into the pulmonary artery has been applied to a variety of forms of single ventricle. Theoretically, this operation should eliminate the right-to-left shunt and decrease the volume of systemic ventricular blood flow. Fontan's...
