Key result
Staged cavopulmonary connection with right ventricular exclusion enables long-term survival in Uhl's anomaly.
Why the study?
Optimal surgical options for critically ill infants with Uhl's anomaly remain unclear.
Does total cavopulmonary connection with right ventricular exclusion improve survival in critically ill infants with Uhl's anomaly?

Does total cavopulmonary connection with right ventricular exclusion improve survival in critically ill infants with Uhl's anomaly?
Total cavopulmonary connection combined with right ventricular exclusion may be a viable surgical strategy for long-term survival in critically ill infants with Uhl's anomaly.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May support total cavopulmonary connection with right ventricular exclusion in Uhl's anomaly; leaves open survival benefit in larger cohorts.
Takizawa et al. (2009) conducted a case report in Uhl's anomaly (n=1). Total cavopulmonary conversion with right ventricular exclusion was evaluated on Survival. Total cavopulmonary connection combined with right ventricular exclusion resulted in successful long-term survival for an infant with Uhl's anomaly.
