Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Pi times radius squared for left and right
Add both branches, divide by surface height
Body surface area tells the tale
Nakata's formula never fails
Three thirty-seven pre-op looking strong
Good surgical candidate, nothing wrong

[Chorus]
Three hundred normal, one fifty's the floor
Borderline dancing in between the score
Pi r squared times two divided clean
By BSA, the sharpest screening machine
Nakata index, pulmonary gauge
Arterial adequacy takes center stage

[Verse 2]
Post-op numbers tell a different story
One thirty-seven, diminished glory
Growth not matching what the body needs
Somatic surge while the artery bleeds
Right ventricle fighting elevated load
PA intervention breaks the code

[Chorus]
Three hundred normal, one fifty's the floor
Borderline dancing in between the score
Pi r squared times two divided clean
By BSA, the sharpest screening machine
Nakata index, pulmonary gauge
Arterial adequacy takes center stage

[Bridge]
Falling numbers scream a warning
Branch growth lagging every morning
Afterload climbing, pressure mounting
Every millimeter we're counting
LPA plus RPA combined
Surgical destiny defined

[Verse 3]
Truncus repair demands precision math
Calculate the optimal vascular path
Months post-surgery, measure again
Track the growth through surgeon's pen
Inadequate branches need intervention
PA promotion, smart prevention

[Outro]
Pi r squared, don't forget the sum
BSA dividing, calculations done
Nakata's wisdom guides the healing art
Pulmonary flow, the beating heart
