Abstract
A novel temporary aortopulmonary shunt, constructed between the aorta and main pulmonary artery with flexible cannulas, was used to facilitate right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction in one neonate and creation of a central aortopulmonary shunt in a second neonate. Although cardiopulmonary bypass is readily available in Turkey, the strategy described in the case report may prove especially useful in developing nations with limited access to cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
