Abstract: The influence of ventricular morphology on Fontan outcomes is controversial. Based on our observations, we hypothesized that dysfunction of the single right ventricle (RV) and right atrioventricular valve increases over time and adversely impacts the clinical outcomes of the Fontan. To investigate
