摘要: Objective: Low pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) and unobstructed flow in the arteries (PA) systemic veins are most important factors for optimal long-term Fontan hemodynamics. We retrospectively analyzed impact of transcatheter interventions treatment stenoses pathway to optimize circulation, with special attention chronic ascites. Patients Design: Sixty-three a total 112 patients underwent heart catheterization 4.6 (1.0–11.4) years after operation. The median age at end follow-up was 11 (3.1–45) years. Patients were divided into two groups, one ascites without. elevated PAP morphologic development analyzed. Results: Ascites observed patients; 5 them had stenosis (P = 0.010). High 15 mmHg or more (n 13) correlated positively (5 13, P 0.040). Twenty removal performed 14 patients. temporary relief all complete resolution alleviation 2 <12 mmHg. Conclusion: Transcatheter can effectively improve hemodynamics even without measurable gradient. In those low PAP, it may lead disappearance ascites.
