Outcomes of truncal valve replacement in neonates and infants: a meta-analysis.
William A HardyLillian KangJoseph W TurekT Konrad RajabPublished in: Cardiology in the young (2023)
Infant truncal valve replacement has poor early and late mortality as well as high rates of reintervention. Truncal valve replacement therefore remains an unsolved problem in congenital cardiac surgery. Innovations in congenital cardiac surgery, such as partial heart transplantation, are required to address this.
