Abstract

A modified technique of infant orthotopic cardiac transplantation with arch reconstruction using bicaval cannulation is described, and the results in 4 infants with hypoplastic left heart syndrome are presented. This technique minimizes donor myocardial ischemic time and recipient circulatory arrest time.
