ABSTRACT
Recurrent pulmonary venous obstruction after repair of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is usually restricted to the anastomosis between the pulmonary venous confluence and the left atrium. We describe a modified technique for repair of supracardiac TAPVC in infants. An L-shaped incision of left atrium is utilized and the right-sided anastomosis is enlarged by using autologous pericardium to create a large and tension-free anastomosis.
