Bilateral Partitioning of Systemic Venous Chamber in Conjunction with Atriopulmonary Anastomoses [Fontan - Kreutzer] - A new technique -

체정맥환류이상을 동반한 복잡심기형환자에 있어 체정맥심방 양분을 이용한 Fonatan 씨 술식 체험 -새로운 수술방법-

A technique applicated for physiologic correction of complex congenital cardiac disease suitable for Fontan procedure in which drainage of left superior vena cava and hepatocardiac vein to left atrium combined is described. We made one systemic venous baffle from left hepatocardiac vein to left superior vena cava and another systemic venous baffle from right inferior vena cava to the right superior vena cava with rigid prosthetic material[0.5mm thickness PTFE patch]. And then we anastomosed directly between the right sided atrial appendage and right pulmonary artery, and left-sided atrial wall beneath the appendage and left pulmonary artery. We believe that this procedure is superior to the method using intraatrial tube graft to divert the left hepatocardiac venous blood to right atrium, and applicable for physiologic correction of any complex congenital cardiac disease suitable for Fontan-type procedure in which anomalies of systemic venous drainage combined.
