We report a case of heterotaxia with single-ventricle physiology undergoing successively pulmonary artery banding (PAB) at 8 months of age, repair of pulmonary vein (PV) stenoses at 15 months of age, and a fenestrated total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC) combined with repair of a regurgitant common atrioventricular (AV) valve and a Damus-Stansel operation for a restrictive subaortic ventricle at 5 years of age, followed by percutaneous closure of the fenestration. The child is now 10 years old and is, to the best of our knowledge, the only reported long-term survivor of a Fontan type procedure done after repair of PV stenoses.
