This video demonstrates the unifocalization of major aortopulmonary collateral arteries in a 17-month-old male infant born with tetralogy of Fallot.
October 9, 2024
This video demonstrates a surgical correction of a 21-months-old infant female diagnosed with pentalogy of Cantrell and a persistent left superior vena cava without a bridging vein.
December 14, 2023
This video shows two cases of tetralogy of Fallot repair using the right atrial appendage and autologous pericardium for the pulmonary valve reconstruction.

This video demonstrates how to construct a trileaflet valve from sizes 5 mm to 38 mm that can be implanted into any conduit type.
October 18, 2022
Preventing chronic pulmonary insufficiency has been a challenge in Tetralogy of Fallot repair, but this video demonstrates a novel technique of creating a valve for the right ventricular outflow tract from the right atrial appendage in order to remedy this problem.
March 29, 2021
Using the Ozaki technique, a valved conduit was prepared using a dacron graft and bovine pericardium, which was used to create RV-PA continuity during total repair of tetralogy of Fallot with type II pulmonary atresia.
July 3, 2019
Bauser-Heaton and colleagues evaluated outcomes for patients with complex tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary atresia and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries (MAPCAs), focusing on those patients who underwent unifocalization with placement of a shut rather than simultaneous intracardiac repair.
June 5, 2019
The authors present a new approach to relieving severe airway compression in tetralogy of Fallot with absent pulmonary valve and massively dilated pulmonary arteries.
