The Fontan circulation is a direct connection between the systemic veins and the pulmonary artery (PA). Consequently, the pulmonary flow is passive due to the gradient between the right and left atrial pressure. In patients with increased pulmonary vascular resistance, the surgical procedure of atrio-pulmonary connection is therefore prone to failure. The goal of this experiment was to increase the pulmonary flow in an experimental model of a Fontan circulation by performing a right atrial cardiomyoplasty (ACMP).
