TY - JOUR T1 - Low pulmonary artery size might be associated with subclinical systemic ventricular dysfunction in the Fontan circulation JF - Heart JO - Heart SP - 1922 LP - 1922 DO - 10.1136/heartjnl-2019-316001 VL - 105 IS - 24 AU - Kenan Yalta AU - Orkide Palabiyik AU - Ertan Yetkin Y1 - 2019/12/01 UR - http://heart.bmj.com/content/105/24/1922.1.abstract N2 - Persistent symptoms and long-term complications in the setting of Fontan circulation (FC) (systemic ventricular failure, etc) still remain as significant clinical challenges in clinical practice.1 In their recently published interesting article,2 Ridderbos et al have suggested pulmonary artery (PA) size (as measured with Nakata index) as an independent predictor for functional clinical status (defined as peak oxygen consumption) in Fontan patients. The authors should be congratulated for the design and novel findings of the study. However, we would … ER -
