Abstract

There are numerous applications of transcatheter techniques in the management of patients after Fontan procedures. These procedures are generally safe and highly successful. They tend to improve the hemodynamics and/or preserve the adequacy of the circulation in these patients. We believe that a strategy that allows to optimize a naturally imperfect circulation, will improve the longterm results of Fontan operation.
