Pulmonary blood flow after total cavopulmonary shunt.
The pattern of pulmonary blood flow was studied in three patients after a total cavopulmonary shunt procedure. Doppler studies showed a phasic pattern of flow which varied with the respiratory cycle. Pulmonary blood flow was increased with normal inspiration, and was much augmented by the Mueller manoeuvre. This suggests that flow was occurring when a negative intrathoracic pressure was generat...
متن کاملLate systemic desaturation after total cavopulmonary shunt operations.
OBJECTIVES To assess the medium-term results of total cavopulmonary shunt operations in children with left atrial isomerism, interrupted inferior vena cava, and complex congenital heart defects. BACKGROUND Creation of a total cavopulmonary shunt provides very good interim palliation for children with interrupted inferior vena cava and complex congenital heart disease; however, longer term res...
متن کاملMagnetic Resonance Imaging-Guided Transcatheter Cavopulmonary Shunt.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that real-time magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) would enable closed-chest percutaneous cavopulmonary anastomosis and shunt by facilitating needle guidance along a curvilinear trajectory, around critical structures, and between a superior vena cava "donor" vessel and a pulmonary artery "target." BACKGROUND Children with single-ventric...
متن کاملSildenafil 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 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...
