Magnetic resonance tagging demonstrates significant regional heterogeneity in wall motion and strain in functional single ventricles across different stages of Fontan reconstruction, which may impact long-term ventricular viability.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Regional strain heterogeneity may affect single-ventricle viability; leaves open whether transition zones predict Fontan outcomes.
Fogel et al. (1995) studied this question.
