Department of Cardiac Surgery, Kinki University Hospital, Osaka, Japan

Accepted for publication July 12, 1997.

A modification of the Rastelli technique using a pedicled autologous pericardial valved conduit was performed on 3 patients aged 10 months to 3 years. Two patients in whom a prosthetic gusset was not used or was partially used showed good recovery during the follow-up period (3 months to 3 years). The pedicled autologous pericardial conduit may be expected to increase its diameter with physical growth.
