An alternative approach to the closure of the Blalock-Taussig anastomosis at open-heart surgery

RA Poirier and DC McGoon

Dissection for closure of a Blalock-Taussig shunt can occasionally be difficult or hazardous at the time of corrective operation. The technique traditionally used for closure of a Potts anastomosis, in which profound hypothermia and circulatory arrest are used, has been applied successfully in 11 operations for control of 12 Blalock-Taussig anastomoses. The technique is described.
