Background. Heterotaxy is considered a risk factor for poor outcomes after the Fontan operation. However, longterm data to support this notion are lacking. The aims of this study were to ascertain the long-term outcomes of patients with heterotaxy after hospital discharge after Fontan completion and to compare these outcomes with those of a contemporary nonheterotaxy cohort.Methods. A binational Fontan registry (n = 1540) was analyzed to identify patients with heterotaxy and compare them with patients without heterotaxy. The primary composite end point was Fontan failure, encompassing death, heart transplantation, Fontan take-down or conversion, protein-losing enteropathy, plastic bronchitis, or New York Heart Association functional class III or IV.Results. A total of 109 patients with heterotaxy were identified and they were compared with 1431 nonheterotaxy patients after Fontan completion. There was no difference in unadjusted 15-year freedom from Fontan failure (heterotaxy, 78% vs nonheterotaxy, 85%; P = .2). Patients in the heterotaxy group had a significantly higher cumulative incidence of post- Fontan arrhythmias (P
