Impact of Blalock-Taussig shunt size on tricuspid regurgitation in hypoplastic left heart syndrome.
BACKGROUND The prognosis for hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) has greatly improved over the past years, but there is still a significant risk of interstage mortality. Tricuspid valve regurgitation (TR) is known to be a risk factor for interstage mortality. We hypothesized that a modified Blalock-Taussig (BT) shunt with a smaller diameter would lead to a reduction in ventricular volume loa...
متن کاملBeyond Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome: The Spectrum of Congenital Heart Disease Associated with Left Ventricular Hypoplasia
Left ventricular hypoplasia complicates other forms of congenital heart disease in addition to the classic ‘‘hypoplastic left heart syndrome.’’ Within this heterogeneous group, subtle anatomic differences determine surgical management and ultimate prognosis. Thus, an individualized approach is necessary to optimize outcomes in this complex population.
متن کاملNorwood Procedure for Palliation of Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome: Right Ventricle to Pulmonary Artery Conduit vs Modified Blalock-Taussig Shunt.
Patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome undergo a series of operations to separate the pulmonary and systemic circulations. The first of at least 3 operations occurs in the newborn period, with a stage I palliation. The goal of stage I palliation is to provide pulmonary blood flow and create an unobstructed systemic outflow tract. Advances in surgical techniques and intraoperative and pos...
متن کاملDouble shunt technique for hybrid palliation of hypoplastic left heart syndrome: a case report
We report a technique to palliate hypoplastic left heart syndrome, with no PDA stenting, but with double polytetrafluoroethylene shunt from pulmonary artery to ascending and descending aorta by combined thoracotomies. A 30-day-old female was operated with this technique. Five months after first operation, the child was submitted to Norwood/Glenn operation. Good hemodinamic recovery and initial ...
متن کاملThe prevalence of right to left shunt in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients with increased pulmonary hypertension
Background: One of the important etiologies for cryptogenic stroke is paradoxical embolization secondary to Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO). Foramen ovale can secondarily reopen due to Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) which is common among the older age. PAH is known as a frequent and life threatening complication of COPD. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of PFO between COP...
