Abstract
The Fontan operation is a life-saving procedure performed on pediatric patients diagnosed with univentricular heart disease. The Fontan circulation
is established by redirecting blood flow directly to the pulmonary circulation without passing through a ventricle. As more women with Fontan circulation reach adulthood and become pregnant, it is important to recognize obstetrical risks and provide optimal care for this rare condition.
