Abstract
Excellent long-term survival can be achieved by primary biventricular repair as corroborated by our survival rate of 82%. Primary biventricular repair is an effective operation for aortic atresia and severe left ventricular outflow tract obstruction with adequate sized left ventricle that avoids interstage attrition associated with Norwood palliation and is our procedure of choice.
