Biventricular repair approach in ducto-dependent neonates with hypoplastic but morphologically normal left ventricle.
OBJECTIVES Increased afterload and multilevel LV obstruction is constant. We assumed that restoration of normal loading conditions by relief of LV obstructions promotes its growth, provided that part of the cardiac output was preoperatively supported by the LV, whatever the echocardiographic indexes. BACKGROUND Whether to perform uni- or biventricular repair in ducto dependent neonates with h...
متن کاملPredictors of Outcome of Biventricular Repair in Infants With Multiple Left Heart Obstructive Lesions
Background—Decisions regarding surgical strategy in patients with multiple left heart obstructive or hypoplastic lesions often must be made in the newborn period and are seldom reversible. Predictors of outcome of biventricular repair have not been well defined in this heterogeneous group of patients, and risk factors described for critical aortic valve stenosis have been shown to be inapplicab...
متن کاملHeterotaxy Syndrome
Heterotaxy is defined as an abnormality where the internal thoraco-abdominal organs demonstrate abnormal arrangement across the left-right axis of the body. This broad term includes patients with a wide variety of very complex cardiac lesions. Patients with heterotaxy can be stratified into the subsets of asplenia syndrome and polysplenia syndrome, or the subsets of heterotaxy with isomerism of...
متن کاملSinus node dysfunction in a patient with left atrial isomerism.
We report the case of an asymptomatic six-year-old child with left atrial isomerism and sinus venosus atrial septal defect. The physical examination revealed several periods of bradycardia. During a 24-hour electrocardiographic monitoring the patient presented a significant sinus node dysfunction with sinus pauses of up to 2.4 seconds. A permanent pacemaker was implanted, with a satisfactory ou...
متن کاملHeart Transplantation in a Patient with Left Isomerism
We report the case of a 37-year-old man who suffered from biventricular failure due to left isomerism, inferior vena cava interruption with azygos vein continuation, bilateral superior vena cava, double outlet of right ventricle, complete atrioventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, and isolated dextrocardia. Heart transplantation in patients with systemic venous anomalies often requires...
