We report our experience with bidirectional Glenn shunt placement as a palliative procedure for complex congenitally corrected transposition.<\/jats:p>\n        <jats:p>We retrospectively identified 50 consecutive patients who had been diagnosed with congenitally corrected transposition accompanied by left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and ventricular septal defect and who had then undergone palliative bidirectional Glenn shunt placement at our institution from January 2005 through December 2014. Patients were divided into 3 groups according to subsequent surgeries: Fontan completion (total cavopulmonary connection, 13 patients) (group 1), anatomic repair (hemi-Mustard and Rastelli procedures without Glenn takedown, 11 patients) (group 2), and prolonged palliation (no further surgery, 26 patients) (group 3).<\/jats:p>\n        <jats:p>After shunt placement, no patient died or had ventricular dysfunction.

The median time from shunt placement to Fontan completion and anatomic repair, respectively, was 2.1 years (range, 1.6\u20135.2 yr) and 1.1 years (range, 0.6\u20132.4 yr). Only 2 late deaths occurred, both in group 1. In group 3, time from shunt placement to latest follow-up was 4.5 years (range, 2.3\u20138 yr).
