BACKGROUND Different techniques are used for the right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction, including homo- or porcine xenografts, which have several limitations. Contegra, a bovine jugular vein graft, is an interesting alternative to overcome these limitations. It consists of a bovine jugular vein with a naturally integrated valve in it. Isolated pulmonary valve endocarditis is extremely ...

Results There were no deaths. Median ICU and hospital stay were 5 and 11 days respectively. Median postoperative (discharge) PV peak gradient (PG) was 23mmHg, median pulmonary regurgitation (PR) 2+/4+ and median tricuspid regurgitation (TR) 1+/4+. Ten patients were followed up for a median of 13 months. For this particular group of patients postoperative vs. follow-up measurements (median value...
متن کاملAberrant left brachiocephalic vein.
Fig. 1. Magnetic resonance imaging was performed using a 1.5 T MRI scanner (Toshiba Medical Systems; Crawley, UK) with cardiac coil and ECG-gating. Noncontrast-enhanced MRA involved a fast-advanced spin-echo (FASE) sequence. The coronal image illustrates aberrant left brachiocephalic vein (arrowheads), which passes posterior to the left subclavian and common carotid arteries to join the right b...
متن کاملDoppler evaluation of homograft valved conduits in children.
To assess the flow characteristics of homograft valved conduits in the immediate postoperative period, 69 children with 71 homograft conduits underwent 2-dimensional and Doppler echocardiographic examination at 1 to 40 days (mean 8) after surgery. Of the 71 conduits studied, 19 were aortic and 52 were pulmonary homograft valved conduits. Two aortic homograft valved conduits were inserted in the...
