Hypoplastic right retro-oesophageal aortic arch: similarities to interrupted aortic arch.

At echocardiography a dysmorphic neonate was found to have a hypoplastic mitral valve, left ventricle, and ascending aorta with interruption of the aortic arch between the left common carotid and the left subclavian arteries--the left subclavian artery arose from a normal sized left descending aorta. Cardiac catheterisation and subsequent necropsy confirmed this arrangement but also showed a to...

A novel technique of antegrade cerebral perfusion in the newborn with critical aortic stenosis.

Various methods of cerebral protection have been used during such aortic arch operations as the Norwood Procedure and operations on the interrupted aortic arch in neonates and infants. Deep hypothermia with circulatory arrest is the most common technique, but has a limited safe period for circulatory arrest. Antegrade cerebral perfusion has been introduced to prolong this safe period. We review...

Risk factors for a positive neoaortic arch gradient after stage I palliation for hypoplastic left heart syndrome.

BACKGROUND Providing unobstructed systemic blood flow is one goal of stage I palliation for hypoplastic left heart syndrome. Although clinically significant obstruction is defined when the arch gradient exceeds 15 mm Hg, any positive gradient constitutes obstruction, which may impair ventricular function. We sought to identify risk factors before stage I palliation that result in a positive neo...

Translocation of the Aortic Arch with Norwood Procedure for Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome Variant with Circumflex Retroesophageal Aortic Arch

Retroesophageal aortic arch, in which the aortic arch crosses the midline behind the esophagus to the contralateral side, is a rare form of vascular anomaly. The complete form may cause symptoms by compressing the esophagus or the trachea and need a surgical intervention. We report a rare case of a hypoplastic left heart syndrome variant with the left retroesophageal circumflex aortic arch in w...

Imaging Maladaptive Aortic Properties in Children After Palliation of Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome Assessed by Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Background—The status of the reconstructed aorta in hypoplastic left heart syndrome is considered an important determinant of long-term prognosis. Therefore, we assessed the anatomy, elastic properties, and viability of the aorta and right ventricular function in patients with hypoplastic left heart syndrome by cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging. Methods and Results—Cardiovascular magnet...
