Know More About Procedure & Surgery

What is Fontan Procedure?

The Fontan procedure is a surgical technique used to separate oxygen-rich and oxygen-poor blood, but the surgery does not create a normal circulatory pattern. For example, in a normal heart, the two lower heart chambers (ventricles) act as pumps, with one ventricle pumping blood to the body and the other pumping blood to the lungs. After the Fontan procedure, only one chamber pumps blood, and it must be strong enough to pull blood that is passively moving through the lungs into the heart and then pump it out to the body.

Why it is done?

The Fontan procedure is used in pediatric patients who possess only a single functional ventricle, either due to lack of a heart valve like tricuspid or mitral atresia, an abnormality of the pumping ability of the heart (e.g. hypoplastic left heart syndrome or hypoplastic right heart syndrome), or a complex congenital heart disease where a bi-ventricular repair is impossible or inadvisable.

During Procedure

The Fontan procedure involves redirecting blood flow from the lower body to the lungs. In the Fontan procedure:

  • The inferior vena cava (IVC) is disconnected from the heart and routed directly to the pulmonary artery. Usually a large tube called a "conduit" is added to make the connection.
  • Often, a small hole or "fenestration" is created between the Fontan conduit and the right atrium. This lets some blood still flow directly back to the heart and acts as a "pop-off" valve as the lungs get used to the extra flow from the lower part of the body. This hole can be closed later with a cardiac catheterization procedure.

After Procedure

Children who have the Fontan procedure usually spend 1 to 2 weeks in the hospital to recover. They get-around-the-clock care and monitoring. They also get medicines to help the heart and improve blood flow.
