Abstract:

We herein reported an 11-month-old infant with right isomerism heart undergoing successful modified primary sutureless repair of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection and bidirectional Glenn shunt. Postoperative cardiac catheterization showed excellent hemodynamics without pulmonary venous obstruction. The modified primary sutureless repair of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection might be a good option also for right isomerism heart.
