The beneficial vortex and best spatial arrangement in total extracardiac cavopulmonary connection.
OBJECTIVE Total extracardiac cavopulmonary connection is an established procedure, but the best spatial arrangement remains controversial. On the basis of our clinical experience with total extracardiac cavopulmonary connection, we performed quantitative and qualitative flow analysis on total extracardiac cavopulmonary connection models simulating the two most frequent arrangements applied to o...
متن کاملExtracardiac conduit in total cavopulmonary connection
Objective: This study evaluates a new technique of an extracardiac conduit in total cavopulmonary connection in complex congenital heart disease. Methods: Between May 2000 and October 2002, 18 extracardiac conduit surgeries were performed. The patients’ weights ranged from 11 to 29 kilograms, the ages ranged from 1 to 12 years old and 10 patients were male. There were eight patients with tricus...
متن کاملResults of extracardiac conduit total cavopulmonary connection in 500 patients.
OBJECTIVES This single-institution study aimed to evaluate the early to mid-term outcomes of extracardiac conduit total cavopulmonary connection (EC-TCPC). METHODS Between March 1994 and March 2014, 500 patients (median age, 3.4 years) underwent EC-TCPC at our hospital. One hundred and twenty-three patients (24.6%) showed heterotaxy, and fenestration was created in 6 patients (1.2%). The stan...
متن کاملTranscaval puncture for access to the pulmonary venous atrium after the extracardiac total cavopulmonary connection operation.
BACKGROUND Patients with surgically palliated total cavopulmonary connection are at risk for recurrent atrial arrhythmia requiring catheter ablation. Transcatheter procedures for those with extracardiac conduits (extracardiac-total cavopulmonary connection) are perhaps the most challenging because of exclusion of the venous circulation from the arrhythmia substrate. Puncture through the inferio...
متن کاملImages in cardiovascular medicine. In vivo 3-dimensional flow connectivity mapping after extracardiac total cavopulmonary connection.
We present findings in an 18-year-old female patient with a double-inlet single ventricle 12 years after extracardic total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC)1 who also presented with a Waldhausen repair of aortic coarctation. To evaluate arterial and venous anatomy and to assess time-resolved 3-dimensional (3D) blood flow in the venous and pulmonary system, flow-sensitive 4-dimensional magnetic re...
