“…The technique also gives antegrade access to the pulmonary artery tree to perform subsequent interventions such as balloon pulmonary angioplasty. This technique has been promoted by the Birmingham approach [51], and several teams favor this technique as the initial procedure for a rehabilitation strategy [30,52,53]. The RV-PA connection can be established in various ways: a transvalvar autologous pericardial patch, a Gore-Tex vascular graft [45,54], or a homograft or other valved conduits [53].…”

The RV-PA connection can be established in various ways: a transvalvar autologous pericardial patch, a Gore-Tex vascular graft [45,54], or a homograft or other valved conduits [53]. A valved conduit will reduce the volume load on the ventricle and the use of stiff conduits of fixed size such as the Hancock Dacron conduit (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN) will maintain predicted flow while preventing the risk of dilation under pressure.…”

“…The use of shunts in the treatment of PA/VSD/MAPCAs is not surprising from a historical standpoint, as shunting procedures were also used extensively in the early treatment of tetralogy of Fallot. Several groups continue to advocate the use of either a central shunt or right ventricle to pulmonary artery conduit as the principal method to achieve "pulmonary artery rehabilitation" [12][13][14][15][16]. The central pulmonary arteries can also be utilized in conjunction with unifocalization of MAPCAs for repair of PA/VSD/MAPCAs [6][7][8][9][10][11][17][18][19].…”

“…As Figure shows, the SPS patient had severe dysplastic distal and proximal PA at preoperation, and we can see the obvious development of distal and proximal PA at follow‐up. The convenience of using a transcatheter treatment to promote the growth of native PA was deemed an advantage of the RV‐PA connection by some studies, including ours. Four balloon angioplasties and one stent implantation were performed for the RV‐PA patients to expand the size and relieve stenosis of the PA.…”

“…As the unifocalization of MAPCAs was found to be a high‐risk procedure with a low patency rate and lack of growth, the systemic‐to‐pulmonary shunt (SPS) and the right ventricle to pulmonary artery (RV‐PA) connection have become the main palliative methods used for these patients. Both of these two operations have been reported to be safe and effective by other studies . However, few studies directly compare these two palliative operations.…”
