Fontan procedure for tricuspid atresia.
A Fontan procedure has been performed on 29 patients for tricuspid valvular atresia. The age range was 8 months to 33 years (median 10 years), the pulmonary vascular resistance ranged from 1.8-6.1 units . m2 (mean 3.3 units . m2), and the mean pulmonary arterial pressure ranged from 13-45 mm Hg (mean 21 mm Hg). Twenty-nine previous operations had been performed in 23 patients. Fourteen other as...
متن کاملLong-term results after the Fontan operation for tricuspid atresia.
Between 1968 and 1977, 32 patients who underwent the Fontan operation for tricuspid atresia at Bordeaux, France, or Leiden, The Netherlands, survived at least 1 year after surgery. These patients were evaluated clinically 7 to 16 years (mean 8.9 years) after surgery by review of clinical records, questionnaire, or direct examination. There were five deaths: one during arrhythmia, the second sud...
متن کاملThe Fontan procedure for tricuspid atresia: early and late results of a 25-year experience with 216 patients.
OBJECTIVES We assessed the operative and late mortality and the present clinical status of 216 patients with tricuspid atresia who had a nonfenestrated Fontan procedure performed at the Mayo Clinic in the 25-year period 1973 to 1998. BACKGROUND The Fontan operation eliminates the systemic hypoxemia and ventricular volume overload characteristic of prior forms of palliation. However, it origin...
متن کاملFlow dynamics in the main pulmonary artery after the Fontan procedure in patients with tricuspid atresia or single ventricle.
We analyzed the flow velocity pattern in the main pulmonary artery after Fontan operation in patients with tricuspid atresia (n = 10) or with single ventricle (n = 10) by means of a catheter-mounted velocity probe. The area underneath the velocity signal of the forward flow was integrated, and ratios of the portions during atrial systole and during the diastolic phase to the total area (Fa and ...
متن کاملTricuspid Atresia
Left ventricular dimensions and contractility were determined by echocardiography in 33 patients with tricuspid atresia in 1985 and again in 1988. Eight patients remained palliated throughout the 3-year period; neither the left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (153±15% of normal vs. 157+19%o, p=NS) nor a load-independent index of contractility (rate-corrected velocity of shortening [VCFc]/end...
