Between 1971 and 1993, 656 conduits were placed in the subpulmonary position. Patients receiving heterografts or valveless conduits and patients dying within 90 days of insertion were excluded; thus 405 homograft conduits were studied. There were 293 aortic homografts, 94 pulmonary, and 18 of unknown type. The end point of conduit failure was defined by conduit replacement for whatever reason, balloon dilation of the conduit, or death of the patient with the conduit in place. The following factors were analyzed: aortic versus pulmonary homograft, antibiotic preservation versus cryopreservation, ABO and Rh compatibility, type of material used for conduit extension, age at operation, size of the conduit, diagnosis, and reoperations. Conduit number (1 to 405) in the series was included in the multivariable model.
