The Norwood Procedure is a complex open-heart surgery primarily performed in newborns with hypoplastic left heart syndrome and other severe congenital heart defects affecting left-sided heart structures. During the procedure, the surgeon reconstructs the aorta and establishes a new pathway for blood flow to the lungs. The surgery helps the right ventricle support systemic circulation while ensuring adequate pulmonary blood flow.
