Background-The life expectancy of patients undergoing a Fontan procedure is unknown.Methods and Results-Follow-up of all 1006 survivors of the 1089 patients who underwent a Fontan procedure in Australia and New Zealand was obtained from a binational population-based registry including all pediatric and adult cardiac centers. There were 203 atriopulmonary connections (AP; 1975-1995), 271 lateral tunnels (1988-2006), and 532 extracardiac conduits (1997-2010). The proportion with hypoplastic left heart syndrome increased from 1/173 (1%) before 1990 to 80/500 (16%) after 2000. Survival at 10 years was 89% (84%-93%) for AP and 97% (95% confidence interval [CI], 94%-99%) for lateral tunnels and extracardiac conduits. The longest survival estimate was 76% (95% CI, 67%-82%) at 25 years for AP. AP independently predicted worse survival compared with extracardiac conduits (hazard ratio, 6.2; P
