Negative Impact of the Left Ventricular Remnant Morphology on Systemic Right Ventricular Myocardial Deformation in Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome

Left ventricular (LV) morphology may affect right ventricular (RV) function before and after Fontan palliation in patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). We sought to assess the potential impact of LV morphology on RV function in patients with HLHS using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging. A retrospective analysis of available CMR scans from all patients with HLHS was performed. LV morphology was categorized as...
