This week we review a recent important work from Germany about the coronary perfusion in patients with HLHS and possible relations between this flow and clinical outcomes. What factors are associated with abnormalities in microvascular coronary flow in the HLHS patient? What anatomical substrate is more concerning for these sorts of problems? Are there factors that might be modifiable that could possibly improve outcomes due to coronary microvascular flow problems in the HLHS patient? How practically easy are CMR studies to assess microvascular coronary flow in the HLHS patient? These are amongst the questions posed this week to Professor Carsten Rickers of University Heart and Vascular Center at the University Hospital Hamburg-Eppendorf. DOI: 10.1161/CIRCIMAGING.121.012468
