Abstract

Yasui operation combines Norwood arch reconstruction with Rastelli operation for interrupted or hypoplastic aorta with aortic valvar atresia or hypoplasia with ventricular septal and two adequately sized ventricles, establishing biventricular repair. We present a case of aortic atresia, mitral hypoplasia, and ventricular septal defect (VSD) treated by Yasui procedure, and its long-term (108 months) follow-up and brief review of literature. Review of literature was done using keywords to search on "PubMed" and "Google Scholar."
