Right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction with bicuspid valved polytetrafluoroethylene conduit.
BACKGROUND In general, all conduits available for right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) reconstruction eventually become stenotic or insufficient. Owing to the lack of an ideal conduit and with the hope of reducing the incidence of reoperations, we have developed and utilized a bicuspid valved polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) conduit for the reconstruction of the RVOT. The purpose of this study ...
متن کاملRight ventricular outflow tract reconstruction with an allograft conduit.
BACKGROUND Allograft conduits are used for reconstruction of the right ventricular outflow tract in patients with congenital heart disease and in the pulmonary autograft procedure. A retrospective evaluation of our experience with the use of allograft conduits for reconstruction of the right ventricular outflow tract was conducted. METHODS Between August 1986 and March 1999, 316 allografts (2...
متن کاملPulmonary artery reconstruction with a prosthetic conduit in lung cancer.
In radical pulmonary resection for advanced lung cancer, reconstruction of the pulmonary artery (PA) can preserve the lung parenchyma. Reconstruction techniques have gained acceptance because they enable the surgeon to avoid pneumonectomy. Various techniques have been documented, such as direct suturing, end-to-end anastomosis, and a patch or conduit reconstruction. We present two lobectomy cas...
متن کاملMid-term experience with the Hancock porcine-valved Dacron conduit for right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction.
OBJECTIVES Surgical reconstruction of the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) often requires implantation of a valved conduit. A single-centre 10-year experience with the Hancock porcine-valved Dacron conduit was retrospectively assessed. METHODS The records of 63 patients who underwent RVOT reconstruction with Hancock conduit implantation between August 2000 and July 2010 were retrospecti...
متن کاملThe contegra® valved heterograft conduit for right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction: a reliable solution.
INTRODUCTION The Contegra® bioprosthetic valved conduit, a glutaraldehyde-preserved valve-containing bovine jugular vein graft (Contegra, Medtronic Inc., Minneapolis MN, USA) introduced for clinical trials in 1998, is used for reconstruction of the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT), mainly in children. This study evaluates our surgical experience with the Contegra® graft, emphasizing the a...
