We report the case of a 3-year-old boy who underwent definitive conversion to the Fontan circulation after total cavopulmonary shunt using a total extracardiac right heart bypass. This simple, safe and reproducible procedure is an alternative to Fontan or total cavopulmonary connection procedure.

D018729 Fontan Procedure A procedure in which total right atrial or total caval blood flow is channeled directly into the pulmonary artery or into a small right ventricle that serves only as a conduit. The principal congenital malformations for which this operation is useful are TRICUSPID ATRESIA and single ventricle with pulmonary stenosis.
