Abstract
The development of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations after cavopulmonary bypass in patients with congenital heart disease is well documented. We report successful management of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations after cavopulmonary bypass in a patient with an interrupted inferior vena cava (IVC) and multiple hepatic veins utilizing an extracardiac conduit from the hepatic veins to the hemiazygous continuation of the interrupted IVC. This technique, performed without circulatory arrest or an atriotomy, may limit morbidity associated with intracardiac procedures in patients with single ventricle morphology. Furthermore, this case suggests an alternative technique for completion Fontan in patients with an interrupted IVC and multiple hepatic venous drainage.
