Introduction

The UPMC International Fontan Symposium 2023 delivers an advanced multidisciplinary review of the lifelong management of patients living with Fontan circulation. Developed through UPMC, the symposium focuses on the evolving medical, interventional, electrophysiologic, and surgical challenges associated with single-ventricle congenital heart disease and Fontan physiology.

Designed for specialists involved in congenital cardiology and complex cardiac care, the program examines both pediatric and adult considerations in Fontan management, including mental health, pregnancy, liver disease, advanced imaging, mechanical circulatory support, ventricular assist devices, transplantation, and post-transplant intensive care strategies.

Through expert-led lectures and clinically focused discussions, participants gain updated insight into the long-term complications associated with Fontan circulation and the rapidly evolving therapeutic approaches used to improve survival, hemodynamics, quality of life, and transplant outcomes in this complex patient population.

Files Included

The UPMC International Fontan Symposium 2023 educational package includes a comprehensive set of cardiovascular learning materials optimized for advanced congenital heart disease education.

Included resources:

These materials support flexible self-paced learning and long-term clinical review for specialists involved in congenital and structural heart disease management.

Why This Course Is Important

The Fontan procedure remains one of the most important palliative surgical advancements in congenital heart disease, allowing survival into adolescence and adulthood for patients born with single-ventricle physiology. However, long-term Fontan circulation is associated with increasingly complex systemic complications affecting cardiovascular, hepatic, lymphatic, neurologic, and psychosocial health.

As survival rates improve, clinicians are now managing a growing population of adult Fontan patients facing challenges that include arrhythmias, ventricular dysfunction, thromboembolic disease, Fontan-associated liver disease, protein-losing enteropathy, pregnancy-related risk, mental health concerns, and transplant planning.

The UPMC International Fontan Symposium 2023 addresses these evolving challenges through a multidisciplinary educational framework integrating congenital cardiology, cardiothoracic surgery, electrophysiology, imaging, transplant medicine, intensive care, and structural heart intervention. The program emphasizes practical patient management strategies relevant to both pediatric and adult congenital cardiac care.

What Participants Will Learn

Participants completing this symposium will strengthen their understanding of the long-term management of Fontan circulation and the multidisciplinary strategies required to optimize outcomes in complex congenital heart disease.

Learning objectives include:

• Evaluating the evolution of the Fontan-Kreutzer circulation and its current clinical challenges
• Implementing comprehensive management strategies for post-Fontan patients
• Addressing mental health, pregnancy, and Fontan-associated liver disease within longitudinal care planning
• Assessing advanced imaging, electrophysiology, and catheterization techniques for optimizing Fontan circulation
• Determining appropriate indications and timing for mechanical circulatory support and ventricular assist devices
• Evaluating heart transplantation and combined heart-liver transplantation strategies
• Analyzing emerging surgical alternatives and future structural heart interventions
