Half a Century's Experience With the Superior Cavopulmonary (Classic Glenn) Shunt

The Glenn shunt continues to provide excellent staged palliation in single-ventricle patients and a bridge to two-ventricle repair. Arrhythmias and pulmonary arteriovenous fistulas were common among single-ventricle cohort. Quality-of-life evaluation of the surviving patients would be an important outcome measure for future investigation.
