Persistent fenestration may be a marker for physiologic intolerance after Fontan completion  Yasuhiro Kotani, MD, PhD, Devin Chetan, HBA, Arezou Saedi, MD, Jiaquan Zhu, MD, PhD, Lars Grosse-Wortmann, MD, John G. Coles, MD, Christopher A. Caldarone, MD, Glen S. Van Arsdell, MD, Osami Honjo, MD, PhD  The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  Volume 148, Issue 6, Pages 2532-2538 (December 2014) DOI: 10.1016/j.jtcvs.2014.06.062 Copyright © 2014 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Freedom from death between open and closed fenestration (A) and stratified by mechanism of fenestration closure (B). The Kaplan-Meier curve showed that the mechanism of fenestration closure was not important but the presence of an open fenestration was associated with the lowest survival.
