Case of a healthy child birth in the family of both parents undergone Fontan procedure
The development and improvement of approaches to the surgical treatment of single ventricle of the heart over the past decades has led to significant success. Survival in the pediatric group (excluding hypoplastic left heart syndrome) exceeds 90%, which leads to a steady increase in the group of patients with Fontan hemodynamics over 18 years of age. Maintaining adults with a single ventricle is a separate complex section of cardiology and cardiac surgery, with many unresolved problems. These include the development of chronic heart failure, cardiac arrhythmias, tactics of anticoagulants and correction of blood rheology, specific complications (protein-losing enteropathy, hydrothorax, ascites, plastic bronchitis, etc.). Another problem that has, in addition to the above, social and psychological importance, is the possibility of pregnancy, a successful delivery and the risks for parents with single ventricle and for a child.
