Thoracic Duct Decompression for Protein-Losing Enteropathy in Failing Fontan Circulation.

Marta António1, Andreia Gordo2, Conceição Pereira3, Fátima Pinto3, Isabel Fragata4, José Fragata2.   

Abstract

An infrequent but devastating late complication of Fontan circulation is protein-losing enteropathy (PLE), which results from unbalanced lymphatic homeostasis. Surgical decompression of the thoracic duct by redirecting its drainage to the pulmonary venous atrium has been introduced recently as a possible treatment. This report describes a single-institution experience with this innovative procedure in 2 patients with failing Fontan circulation with PLE refractory to optimized medical therapy.
