Abstract
The Norwood-based strategy for single ventricle palliation has improved with technical innovations and refinements over the last decades; such as regional cerebral perfusion during aortic arch reconstruction [1], placement of a right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery (RV-PA) shunt rather than a systemic-to-pulmonary shunt [2, 3], and the concept of aggressive afterload reduction to maximise oxygen delivery following Norwood procedure [4, 5].
