Mid-term outcomes were retrospectively reviewed. The median follow-up period after Norwood in hospital survivors was 4.6 years (interquartile range: 1.9, 6.8).<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Fourteen patients (31.1%) had no risk factors. The median age and weight at Norwood were 1.8 months (0.9, 3.5) and 3.1 kg (2.7, 3.6). Transplant-free survival at 6 years was 84.5%. Birth weight \u22642.5 kg and systemic atrioventricular valve (SAVV) regurgitation \u2265 moderate after birth were not risk factors for mortality; body weight at Norwood \u22642.5 kg, however, was a risk factor [hazard ratio (HR), 11.3; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.2\u201311; P = 0.036]. Twenty-two (48.9%) underwent Fontan with no mortalities, and 7 (15.5%) are awaiting Fontan. Freedom from SAVV surgery at 5 years was 53.1%. SAVV regurgitation \u2265 moderate after birth was a risk factor for SAVV surgery (HR, 16; 95% CI, 3.6\u201371; P &amp;lt; 0.001); however, ductal stenting had a protective effect against SAVV surgery (HR, 0.09; 95% CI, 0.01\u20130.68; P = 0.019).
