Impact of Vascular Geometry on Thrombosis in Pediatric Patients With Modified Blalock‐Taussig‐Thomas Shunt: A Pilot Study

Background Thrombosis in modified Blalock‐Taussig‐Thomas shunts (mBTTS) poses a life‐threatening risk for infants with shunt‐dependent congenital heart disease. Although hemodynamics influence thrombosis, the specific geometric contributors remain unclear. This study aimed to identify key variables...
