Autogenous atrial tunnel for direct cavopulmonary connection in infants and small children

RA Perryman
Division of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, University of Miami School of Medicine, Florida 33101.

A technique is described for construction of an autogenous right atrial tunnel for direct cavopulmonary connection in infants and small children requiring Fontan operation. Advantages, in this subset of patients, of this method over others previously described using prosthetic or growth-limited materials are suggested.
