Lets agree on a few principles<br />

1. Surgical strategy largely determined by:<br />

– BVF<br />

– Semilunar valves<br />

– (aortic arch)<br />

2. BVF <strong>resection</strong> is not applicable during neonatal<br />

period (exposure, friable tissue)<br />

Therefore, if subAS (restrictive BVF) is severe<br />

enough to warrant <strong>resection</strong>, then DKS/Norwood<br />

is necessary (palliative switch?)
