چکیده

Although isomerism of the bronchial tree is an integral part of hetrotaxy syndrome, the association of congenital tracheal stenosis is rare in this group of disorders, and it has not yet been thoroughly described in the literature. This condition is potentially life-threatening and precludes single ventricle palliation. This report presents the case of a 5-month old infant with symptomatic congenital tracheal stenosis, functionally univentricular heart and extracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC). The condition was successfully treated with bidirectional Glenn anastomosis, central pulmonary artery plasty, repair of TAPVC and slide tracheoplasty.

Interstage mortality for functional single ventricle with heterotaxy syndrome: a retrospective study of the clinical experience of a single tertiary center

BACKGROUND In spite of improved survival after palliation for single ventricle, interstage mortality for a single ventricle with heterotaxy syndrome is unknown. The purpose of this study was to quantify interstage mortality and influence mortality risk factors. METHODS From November 1994 until February 2012, all patients that had a functional single ventricle and heterotaxy syndrome who under...

Fontan Operation in a Patient with Severe Hypoplastic Right Pulmonary Artery, Single Ventricle, and Heterotaxy Syndrome.

Assessment of the pulmonary circulation status including pressure, resistance, size, and absence of anatomical distortion, is crucial to the successful Fontan operation. Most patients are found to have acceptable pulmonary arteries after previous palliation, although some degree of distortion is not uncommon. However, in rare instances, some patients have only one functioning lung with another ...

Surgical management of congenital heart defects associated with heterotaxy syndrome.

OBJECTIVE Heterotaxy syndrome (HS) is generally associated with complex congenital cardiac defects and has a high morbidity and mortality despite recent surgical progress. Only few reports deal with an overall surgical population. METHODS Between 1989 and 2008, 139 patients with HS entered a programme of surgical repair. Fifty-one patients were suitable for univentricular heart repair (UVR) a...

Preoperative single ventricle function determines early outcome after second-stage palliation of single ventricle heart

BACKGROUND Second-stage palliation with hemi-Fontan or bidirectional Glenn procedures has improved the outcomes of patients treated for single-ventricle heart disease. The aim of this study was to retrospectively analyze risk factors for death after second-stage palliation of single-ventricle heart and to compare therapeutic results achieved with the hemi-Fontan and bidirectional Glenn procedur...

Transhepatic permanent pacing in a child with complex cyanotic heart disease after total cavo pulmonary shunt (Kawashima repair)

Complex cyanotic congenital heart diseases with left isomerism are sometimes associated with atrioventricular nodal conduction disturbances that may need permanent pacing. Surgical palliation in such anatomy connecting the superior vena cava to the pulmonary artery precludes a transvenous access for an endocardial pacing lead to the ventricles. Epicardial leads in these patients fail if the pac...
