Abstract

Two patients with pulmonary atresia and ventricular septal defect underwent implantation of the diminutive pulmonary arteries on the ascending aorta by interposition of short segment of azygos and innominate veins. The very thin structure of the systemic veins' wall matched perfectly the fragile pulmonary arterial wall. The anastomosis were perfectly patent and no aneurism dilatation was evident after three and four months, respectively.
