Abstract:
:Valved stents are new land for cardiac surgeons even though they are being used more frequently by interventional disciplines. This paper presents simple steps to build a patient-specific pulmonary valved stent and its delivery device. The design concept was tested by random participants at a med-tech meeting. The valved stent is constructed by linking an endoprosthetic graft with a valved-jugular-vein. The delivery device is made from a modified 5-ml syringe. Of 72 participants, 66 (92%) built and 60 participants implanted the device successfully into the targeted pulmonary position via a trans-infundibular access.

杂志文章abstract::We report two cases of venous cannulation after a total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC) with extracardiac conduit. Venous cannulation was performed via side graft sutured to the extracardiac conduit in an end-to-side fashion.
