Conduit-integration in correction of right ventricular outflow obstruction.
A new method for correction of right ventricular flow tract obstruction is described. The method combines the advantages of patch-plasty-procedure and external valved conduit by conduit integration into the right ventricular and pulmonary arterial wall. Good results had been achieved in 3 cases (2 cases of Fallot's tetralogy and one case of double outlet right ventricle).
