Early Outcomes for In Situ Pericardial Roll Repair for Distant Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return

BackgroundRepair of anomalous pulmonary venous return (APVR) when veins are remote from the left atrium (LA) is challenging and may eventuate in a higher prevalence of pulmonary vein stenosis, superior vena cava stenosis, or intracardiac baffle obstruction. We describe our experience in 6 patients with a technique, using both anterior and posterior in situ pericardial roll repairs, which reduces these complications.MethodsSix patients underwent...
