Abstract

Partial hepatic vein exclusion, as an alternative to baffle fenestration, has been performed as a modification of the Fontan procedure. We report a case of severe cyanosis resulting from massive right-to-left shunting via a hepatic vascular malformation that developed in a patient after a modified Fontan procedure with partial hepatic vein exclusion.
