Kotani Y et al. – Although a staged Fontan strategy allows for an excellent outcome in high–risk patients, an impaired ventricular function remains a significant factor of early/late mortality and morbidity. This study evaluated the clinical outcome of the Fontan operation in patients with impaired ventricular function. Acceptable clinical outcomes were observed at an intermediate follow–up of the Fontan operation in patients with an impaired ventricular function.
