Right-sided BSCA provides for satisfactory pulmonary arterial growth in infants and children with complex congenital heart defects, and it could enhance the growth of a small right pulmonary artery. The growth of the left pulmonary artery, particularly in younger patients, needs close attention to confirm the safe role of BSCA in long-term palliation.

In order to increase the possibilities for learning accurate surgical technique in gastrointestinal surgery, we have established a local course for operative training of the registrars. We used organs from pigs--stomach, intestines and liver/gallbladder. They were collected from the local abattoir with assistance from a vet. Conventional gut anastomosis and gastroenteroanastomosis were performed with "two-layer" and "one-layer" techniques. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed with the liver-gallbladder organ block placed in a "black box", in which the organ was perfused with red fluid--a Pulsatile Organ Perfusion System. The registrars' evaluations of the course were very positive. They all thought that the course gave them opportunities for surgical training that were not available in the busy daily routine. The course now forms part of the education programme for surgical registrars in our department.
