This report uncovers aortic dissection management techniques in Fontan patients, indicating the importance of tailored surgical approaches.
Aortic dilation and dissection can occur in Fontan survivors, requiring careful preoperative planning with peripheral cannulation, cooling, and coronary ostial cardioplegia. Complex coronary reconstruction, short-term venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation with early chest closure, and ongoing imaging surveillance are essential for management and long-term care.
