Background: Echocardiography vector flow mapping can assess dynamic flow to treat congenital heart diseases. We evaluated intracardiac flow, energy loss, left ventricular output kinetic energy, and energetic performance index using vector flow mapping during Glenn and Damus-Kaye-Stansel procedures in order to assess the efficacy of the surgery. Case presentation A 9-month-old boy underwent Glenn and Damus-Kaye-Stansel procedures. The energy loss depends on the left ventricular preload; therefore, energy loss decreased after the Glenn procedure. After the Damus-Kaye-Stansel procedure, the kinetic energy would increase owing to the integrated systemic outflow; however, in our case, kinetic energy decreased, which was potentially explained by the fact that kinetic energy also depends on the left ventricular preload. After the Glenn and Damus-Kaye-Stansel procedures, we detected an improvement in energetic performance index, indicating that the cardiac workload improved as well. Conclusion We revealed the efficiency of the Glenn and Damus-Kaye-Stansel procedures using vector flow mapping.
