Objectives: The improved management of Fontan patients has resulted in good outcome. As such, these patients may necessitate care for non-cardiac surgery. We sought to determine the long-term outcome of our Fontan series palliated with the most recent surgical techniques. Our second objective was to report the incidence and the perioperative course after non-cardiac procedures. We reviewed the records of all patients with either a lateral tunnel or an extracardiac conduit Fontan between 1996 and 2008. Follow-up was recorded until June, 2013, including records regarding non-cardiac interventions. Results: Overall, 58 patients were included. Of them, one patient underwent a takedown of his Fontan, and five patients died in the immediate postoperative course. The cumulative survival of the remaining 52 patients was 81%. There was no significant difference in survival between right and left ventricle morphologies (p=0.56), nor between both types of Fontan (p=0.9). Chronic arrhythmias (25%), fatigue/dyspnoea (40%), thrombotic complications (19%), and embolic events (10%) were among the most recurrent comorbidities. In total, 45 non-cardiac interventions were performed on 26 patients, with three bleeding complications and one death. Conclusions: This study shows excellent long-term survival after both lateral tunnel and extracardiac conduit Fontan. The incidence of cardiovascular morbidity remains high, however. We also report a high number of non-cardiac interventions. Thorough understanding of the Fontan physiology is mandatory when non-cardiac anaesthesiologists are in charge of these patients.
