Abstract

In order to optimize the technique of cavapulmonary anastomosis and to determine mutual position and orientation of the inflow and outflow axes of implanted anastomoses, hemohydrodynamic studies are carried out using laser Doppler anemometry. The most hydrodynamically optimal variant of the cavapulmonary bypass, a crucial anastomosis with a half-diameter shift and an angle of 60° with the outflow axis, is determined.
