This surgical technique for Ebstein's anomaly can be performed with low mortality and morbidity. Early echocardiograms showed significant reduction of tricuspid insufficiency, and the follow-up showed improvement in patients' clinical status and low incidence of reoperation.

Da Silva's cone repair for Ebstein's anomaly creates excellent valve function in all patients. Consecutively, the size of the RV decreases and the antegrade net stroke volume increases 6 months after the operation.

These results suggest an important role of HT in the treatment of CCHD. There was a low frequency of T cruzi infection reactivation and no signs of recurrence of the disease in the allograft. The surprisingly decreased rejection incidence and severity require further studies for elucidation.
