Limitations
Although the preoperative data of the groups are similar, the heterogeneity of the patient group, the presence of single-ventricle physiology in the patient population, and the presence of patients with complex pathologies requiring intracardiac repair make it difficult to evaluate survival and early complications. Some changes of the surgical teamĀ  during the study period, the learning curve and better postoperative care may have an impact on results. In addition, our study has the disadvantages of being single-center and retrospective. We believe that the rate of reoperation and reintervention may be affected due to the relatively short follow-up times and the majority of patients being operated on within the last 3 years.
