Surgical management of complex congenital heart disease (CHD) is challenging. Three‐
dimensional (3D) printing can improve multidisciplinary team decision‐making, patient and
family understanding, and education of medical professionals. We describe 3D printing for
surgical management of five patients with complex CHD. The anatomical details of the 3D
printed models were instrumental in planning surgical techniques especially in determining
between single ventricle, 1.5 ventricle, and biventricular repair.
