Abstract
This report described a case in which purulent mediastinitis involving a Hancock prosthesis developed after repair of truncus arteriosus in a 6-year-old boy. The graft and surrounding area became sterilized after having been irrigated with povidone-iodine and antibiotic solutions for 6 weeks. At his most recent visit, the child was completely active and asymptomatic.Entities:
