Surgical management of tricuspid atresia.
Tricuspid atresia is one of the less common forms of congenital heart disease. The results of palliative surgery in 72 children are presented. Cardiac catheterization and angiocardiography are essential for precise definition of the anomaly. There is a 20% incidence of obstruction at atrial septal level. Closed atrial septostomy is of value in such cases in infancy. In most there is a reduced p...
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...
متن کاملTricuspid atresia with I-transposition.
Sir, In their recent article (1987;57:543-7) on tricuspid atresia with transposition of the great arteries Warnes and Somerville emphasised the inportance of subaortic stenosis in these patients, especially those with coarctation. They suggested that the Fontan procedure was the procedure of choice in these patients but remarked that in patients with subaortic stenosis the prognosis after Fonta...
متن کاملPregnancy in a woman with uncorrected tetralogy of fallot.
Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) is the most common form of cyanotic congenital heart disease after 1 year of age, with overall incidence approaching 10% of all congenital heart disease. Natural survival (i.e. without corrective procedure) into the fourth decade is extremely rare (only about 3%), but there is a tendency of increasing number of women with cyanotic congenital heart disease living 3 to 4...
متن کاملSuccessful Management of Pregnancy in Uncorrected Tetralogy of Fallot with Pulmonary Atresia.
Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the commonest congenital cyanotic heart disorder, accounting for 5–6 % of them [1]. It is characterized by a large ventricular septal defect, right ventricular outflow tract obstruction, right ventricular hypertrophy, and aorta overriding the interventricular septum. Most patients with TOF undergo reparative surgery in childhood. TOF with pulmonary atresia is the ex...
