Between 1988 and 1995, 60 patients with complex cardiac anomalies underwent a total extracardiac cavopulmonary connection, a combination of a bidirectional cavopulmonary anastomosis with an extracardiac conduit interposition between the inferior vena cava and pulmonary arteries, except in one patient in whom direct anastomosis was possible. In 40 patients the total extracardiac cavopulmonary connection followed preliminary bidirectional cavopulmonary anastomosis, associated with a modified Damus-Kaye-Stansel anastomosis in 16. The conduits were constructed of Dacron fabric (n = 34), homografts (n = 3), and polytetrafluoroethylene (n = 22).
