1 Can Fontan Conversion for Patients Without Late Fontan Complications be Justified? 
Akihiko Higashida, MD, Takaya Hoashi, MD, PhD, Koji Kagisaki, MD, Masatoshi Shimada, MD, Hideo Ohuchi, MD, PhD, Isao Shiraishi, MD, PhD, Hajime Ichikawa, MD, PhD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 103, Issue 6, Pages (June 2017) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2017 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Actual survival rates estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. The dashed line represents group 1, the solid line represents group 2, and the dotted line represents all patients. No significant difference between group 1 and group 2 was detected by the log-rank test (p = 0.12).

3 Fig 2 Freedom from (A) atrial tachyarrhythmia (AT) rate and (B) protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) rate in both groups. The dashed lines represent group 1 and the solid lines represent group 2.

4 Fig 3 Postoperative chronological changes of (A) the mean pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP), (B) systemic ventricular end-diastolic pressure (SVEDP), and (C) cardiac index calculated by cardiac catheter examination. The dashed line represents group 1 and the solid line represents group 2. *p < 0.05.

5 Fig 4 Postoperative chronological changes of (A) systemic ventricular end-diastolic volume index (SVEDVI), (B) systemic ventricular end-systolic volume (SVESVI), (C) stroke volume index (SVI), and (D) systemic ventricular ejection fraction (SVEF) calculated by cardiac catheter examination. The dashed lines represent group 1 and the solid lines represent group 2. *p < 0.05.

6 Fig 5 The changes in (A) New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class and (B) peak oxygen consumption (VO2) from preoperative evaluation (pre) to 1 year after the conversion (1 year). The dashed lines and closed circles represent group 1 and the solid lines and open circles represent group 2.
