Low pulmonary artery size might be associated with subclinical systemic ventricular dysfunction in the Fontan circulation.

The authors should be congratulated for the design and novel findings of the study. However, we would like to make a few comments regarding further implications of PA size in Fontan patients:eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessLow pulmonary artery size might be associated with subclinical systemic ventricular dysfunction in the Fontan circulationLetter105241921192131712315WOS:0005038001000142-s2.0-85075037860Q110.1136/heartjnl-2019-316001Q1
