Abstract:
Modified Norwood procedure with maintaining cardiac beat was done in a 30-day-old neonate. Procedure was done with regional perfusion of innominate and coronary artery. Postoperative course was uneventful. Second-stage operation (bi-directional cavopulmonary shunt) was done 4 months later. The diameter of ascending aorta was more than 5 mm, Norwood procedure can be done in beating hearts.
