Abstract Objective: Deciding on a surgical pathway for neonates with ≥2 left heart obstructive
lesions is complex. Predictors of the successful biventricular (2V) repair in these patients are poorly defined. The goal of our study was to identify patients who underwent the 2V repair and assess anatomic and echocardiographic predictors of success.
Design: Infants born between July 2015 and August 2017 with ≥2 left heart obstructive lesions with no prior interventions were identified (n = 19). Patients with aortic
or mitral valve (MV) atresia and critical aortic stenosis were excluded. Initial echocardiograms were reviewed for aortic, MV, tricuspid valve annulus size,… More >
