text: If the pulmonary valve isn't narrowed and if the ventricular septal defect is large, too much blood can flow to the lungs, which can lead to heart failure.
text: Blood can then flow forward into the lungs.
text: After Fontan completion, blood must flow through the lungs without being pumped by the heart.
text: This is not a permanent solution and will allow blood blow into the lungs and buy time until the pulmonary atresia is surgically repaired.
text: The principle of the procedure is that it's not necessary to have a ventricle that pumps to the lungs, so long as small blood vessels in the lung are healthy and blood can flow through the lung at low pressure.
text: If your baby has too much blood flowing to the lungs from the heart, a surgeon might place a band around the pulmonary artery to reduce the flow.
text: If your baby has too much blood flowing to the lungs from the heart, a surgeon might place a band around the pulmonary artery to reduce the flow.

text: Blood returning from the body flows to the lungs before passing through the heart.
text: This means that blood can’t flow from the heart to the lungs to get oxygen to the body.
text: The first operation involves the placement of a shunt or tube directly from aorta or one of its branches to the pulmonary artery to ensure that enough blood is flowing to the lungs during the first few months of the child’s life.
text: This allows blood to flow from the superior vena cava directly to the pulmonary artery and the lungs.
text: The first operation is positioning of a Blalock-Taussig shunt (or BT shunt) that allows blood to flow to the lungs once the natural patent ductus arteriosus closes.
text: (or BT shunt) that allows blood to flow to the lungs once the natural patent ductus arteriosus closes.
text: After these operations, deoxygenated blood flows to the lungs without passing through the right side of the heart.
text: If the ductus arteriosus closes after birth, not enough blood flows to the lungs.
text: Initial treatment may include drugs to keep the ductus arteriosus open (this 'shortcut' normally closes soon after birth) to allow blood to flow to the lungs and

text: Some children with tricuspid atresia have too much blood flowing to the lungs.

text: Blood can then flow forward into the lungs.
text: At this point, the oxygen-poor blood from upper and lower body flows through the lungs without being pumped (driven only by the pressure that builds up in the veins).
