2 Fig 1 (A, B) Preoperative chest computed tomography angiography shows multiple mediastinal abscesses (white arrows) causing compression of the left main stem bronchus.

3 Fig 2 Schematic illustration of the operation conducted through a left thoracotomy shows the reconstructed aortic arch (Ao), the previous right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery (RV-PA) conduit used for the Norwood procedure, and the intercostal muscle flap pedicle. The arrow indicates the left bronchus with a large area denuded and injured. The intercostal muscle flap was used to cover the defect and reconstruct the cartilaginous portion of the left bronchus.
