Jacobs, MD The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery Volume 150, Issue 5, Pages 1047-1051 (November 2015) DOI: 10.1016/j.jtcvs.2015.08.059 Copyright © 2015 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 For the 338 propensity-matched patients (169 matched pairs, of the entire cohort of 454), there appeared to be a survival advantage at all points in time associated with the right ventricle–to–pulmonary artery conduit strategy (SANO) in comparison with the modified Blalock-Taussig shunt strategy (BT).

Figure 2 When comparing the simple and complex Ross operation groups with respect to neoaortic (neo-Ao) valve reintervention, there were no significant differences between groups.

Figure 3 Examining late survival conditional on survival to 1 year, the late survival curves for the lateral tunnel and the extracardiac types of Fontan procedure were virtually superimposable. NS, Not significant. Adapted from the presentation by Dr Tacy Downing.

Figure 4 Time-related freedom from reoperation on the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) for patients who underwent conal resection at the time of initial repair was considerably less than it was among those who had undergone an aortopulmonary amalgamation to bypass the hypoplastic left ventricular outflow tract. Adapted from the presentation by Dr Bahaaldin Alsoufi.
