Sildenafil before total cavopulmonary connection.
The surgical palliation first described by Fontan and Baudet 1 as Fontan-type operation or total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC) is based on a connection between the systemic venous system and the pulmonary artery tree, excluding the pumping function of the main ventricle. Under these circumstances, the main ventricular chamber acts as a single ventricle, supplying anterograde flow and aspirati...
متن کاملCryoprecipitate and platelet administration during modified ultrafiltration in children less than 10 kg undergoing cardiac surgery.
UNLABELLED The timing of blood product administration after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) may influence the amount of postoperative transfusion and chest tube output. We performed a retrospective study of a novel technique of administering blood products during modified ultrafiltration (MUF) in congenital cardiac surgery. A Control Group (CG; n = 55) received cryoprecipitate and platelets after ...
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 کاملGrowth of the lateral tunnel in patients who underwent a total cavopulmonary connection at less than 5 years of age.
OBJECTIVE A lateral tunnel-total cavopulmonary connection (LT-TCPC) using a right atrial (RA) free wall is the first choice of treatment for patients with a small body weight in this institute. Whether the growth of the LT is appropriate or not according to the growth of the body remains controversial. In addition, the optimal initial diameter of an LT is unknown. The purpose of this study was ...
متن کاملComplex Cardiac Surgery on Patients with a Body Weight of Less Than 5 kg without Donor Blood Transfusion.
Performing safe cardiac surgery in neonates or infants whose parents are Jehovah's Witnesses is only possible in a coordinated team approach. An unconditional prerequisite is a cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) circuit with a very low priming volume to minimize hemodilution. In the past decade, we have developed a functional blood-sparing approach at our institution. The extracorporeal circuit was m...
