Fig 1 Operative technique of extracardiac total cavopulmonary connection using a pedicled pericardial conduit. (A) Creation of a pedicled pericardial conduit. The cardiac apex pointed to the left. The inferior vena cava (IVC) drained into the left side atrium. (B) The conduit was behind the ventricle, between the IVC and left pulmonary artery. (PV = pulmonary vein; RAA = right atrial abnormality.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 2001 72, 1393-1394DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(00)02591-1)
