Abstract
Reconstruction of the tricuspid valve is an acceptable surgical strategy in patients with severe neonatal Ebstein anomaly. Fenestrated atrial septal defect and systemic-pulmonary shunt can help overcome anatomic pulmonary stenosis and high pulmonary resistance in the neonatal period. This surgical strategy has a good survival outcome and preserves the possibility of complete biventricular repair.
