Decreased incidence of supravalvar pulmonary stenosis after arterial switch operation.
BACKGROUND Supravalvar pulmonary stenosis (SVPS) is frequently observed after arterial switch. Traditionally the coronary arteries are removed from the neopulmonic root by excising the entire sinus of Valsalva. As a result, reconstruction of the neopulmonic root requires a pericardial patch encompassing two-thirds of the anastomosis between the neopulmonic root and pulmonary artery. We present ...
متن کاملNeo-coarctation after the arterial switch operation.
Neo-coarctation following arterial switch operation (ASO) for transposition of the great arteries (TGA) is a complication that is not regularly described, but may occur. We describe five patients who developed a neo-coarctation after operation. They were diagnosed with TGA, either with or without ventricular septal defect without signs or symptoms of a coarctation. Except for one patient, all p...
متن کاملAortic regurgitation after arterial switch operation.
n the early 1980s, Jatene developed the arterial switch peration (ASO), which soon became the preferred surgery or d-loop transposition of the great arteries (TGA). This peration includes translocation of the pulmonary artery and orta above the sinuses, often with a Lecompte maneuver bringing the pulmonary artery anterior to the aorta) and oronary reimplantation into the neo-aortic sinuses. Alh...
متن کاملReoperation for neoaortic root pathology after the arterial switch operation.
OBJECTIVES To evaluate incidence and results of surgical intervention for neoaortic root pathology following arterial switch operation (ASO) for transposition of the great arteries (TGA). METHODS Between April 1996 and August 2013, 12 patients underwent reoperation for neoaortic root dilatation (ARD) and/or neoaortic valve regurgitation (AR). Maximal aortic sinus and annulus diameter Z-scores...
متن کاملAcute aorto-pulmonary fistula following balloon pulmonary angioplasty after arterial switch operation.
A 13-year old girl, who had undergone arterial switch operation using the Lecompte manoeuvre for TGA, developed aortopulmonary fistula derived from the balloon angioplasty for pulmonary artery (PA) stenosis (Fig. 1A–C). Because the adhesive tissue prevented cardiac tamponade, elective surgical repair including PA reconstruction using a composite graft was successfully done several days after re...
