Three-dimensional printing of a complex CHD to plan surgical repair

Khaled Hadeed et al. Cardiol Young. 2016 Oct.

Abstract

We used three-dimensional printing technology to create an anatomical three-dimensional model of a very rare and complex cyanotic CHD in a newborn, consisting of double-outlet left ventricle, ventricular septal defect, and pulmonary stenosis. This case demonstrates how this new innovative technology allows better understanding of the anatomy in complex CHDs and permits to better plan the surgical repair.

Keywords: CHD; Double-outlet left ventricle; three-dimensional printing.
