This week we re-review an impressive review of the large Australian/New Zealand registry of Fontan patients assessing the impact of AV valve regurgitation and failure on Fontan outcomes. We discuss this work with the senior author Yves D'udekem, Associate Professor of Surgery at The Murdoch Children's Research Institute and also speak with Professor Frank Cetta of the Mayo Clinic who authored a wonderful editorial on this work. Who is at most risk for AV valve failure at Fontan? How well do patients do with AV valve replacement or repair? We discuss all these issues this week on this exciting episode. doi: 10.1016/j.jacc.2018.12.025
