Pulmonary Hemodynamic Changes with Nitric Oxide or Oxygen in a Patient with Asplenia, Single Right Ventricle, and Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection after Fontan Procedure

Hideharu Oka, Kouichi Nakau, Aya Kajihama, Masaya Sugimoto, Hiroshi AzumaAsahikawa Medical University.Japan Case Reports in CardiologyCase Rep Cardiol 2018DOI: 10.1155/2018/3736254 AbstractAsplenia syndrome is frequently complicated by a total anomalous pulmonary venous connection. Pulmonary venous obstruction, following total anomalous pulmonary venous connection surgery, is one of the risk factors for morbidity and mortality. In some patients, the
