Article Synopsis
- A 2-year-old girl with hypoplastic left heart syndrome faced complications after a heart surgery, prompting a team to consider a less invasive repair option involving the Fontan pathway.
- Using advanced imaging and computational fluid dynamics, researchers created a detailed model of her heart to simulate the potential outcomes of an endovascular revision.
- The simulations showed that the proposed repair could improve certain pressures in the heart but slightly reduced blood inflow from major veins, indicating both benefits and trade-offs of the procedure.
