This report described a case in which purulent mediastinitis involving a
Hancock prosthesis developed after repair of truncus arteriosus in a
6-year-old boy. The graft and surrounding area became sterilized after
having been irrigated with povidone-iodine and antibiotic solutions for 6
weeks. At his most recent visit, the child was completely active and
asymptomatic.
