Orthotopic transplantation for total anomalous pulmonary venous connection associated with complex congenital heart disease.

Abstract

Orthotopic transplantation is a viable option for children with complex total anomalous pulmonary venous connection that precludes a biventricular repair. Transplantation may improve the dismal prognosis of those children, but it does not eliminate the potential for late pulmonary venous obstruction.
