RESUMEN
We operated on two neonates with a technical modification of the standard central shunt. The anatomic diagnosis was pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect and patent ductus arteriosus. In operation, the aorto - shunt graft anastomosis was created in a side-to-side ashion. During follow-up both pulmonary arteries and main pulmonary artery were well grown. And when the patients were 10 and 18 months of age, Lecompte procedures were Performed. This technique has the advantage of creating a short, straight-lying shunt that is less like to kink.
