Abstract
There may exist intersurgeon and intrasurgeon variability in the shape and size of patches developed during intracardiac rerouting procedures, especially among junior surgeons. In this report geometric morphometrics, approaches of shape analysis developed in biology, is applied to analyze patch shapes created by surgeons through surgical simulation for an intraatrial reroutingprocedure. Geometric morphometrics can be a useful toll in the armamentariumof pediatric cardiac surgery in which shape matters. (C) 2020 by The Society of Thoracic Surgeons
