Abstract
A prophylactic anticoagulation strategy that considers the surgical technique and potential predisposing circumstances proved effective in the prevention of late thrombotic complications after total cavopulmonary anastomosis. There is no need for routine anticoagulation during long-term follow-up after Fontan-type surgery in pediatric patients.
