ABSTRACT
Since the year 2000, we have used Contegra conduits for right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction in infants and newborns. Published reports of early and late results from multiple centers have included variable and inconsistent findings. Concerns about the durability of small conduits placed in younger infants have been expressed. We report an interesting experience with a 12-mm Contegra conduit that we explanted 16 years after implantation in the course of repair of truncus arteriosus (common arterial trunk) in an infant.
