Complete repair of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection in adult patient.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A 22 year-old male patient was admitted with supracardiac, nonobstructive, total anomalous pulmonary venous connection and large atrial septal defect. Cardiac catheterization revealed severe pulmonary hypertension due to pulmonary overflow (Qp/Qs 6, pulmonary vascular resistance = 1.6 Woods/m(2)). Complete repair was performed through median sternotomy and cardiopulmonary bypass. The patient was discharged from hospital on the sixth postoperative day with no complications, using converting enzyme inhibitor and aspirin. At six-month follow-up he is currently asymptomatic, with preserved biventricular function and no echocardiographic signs of pulmonary hypertension.

Abstract Objective: To evaluate the surgical treatment of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) and determination of predictors for postoperative death. Methods: Between 1995 and 2005, 80 patients aged from 1 month to 12 years underwent surgical repair for supracardiac (39), cardiac (34), infracardiac (3) or mixed (4) type of TAPVC. Systemic pulmonary hypertension (PH) in ...

The goal of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection repair is to obtain an unobstructed communication between the pulmonary veins and the left atrium and removing intracardiac shunting. However, pulmonary venous obstruction orstenosis may be seen in 5-10% of patients, is usually evident in the first 6 months following surgery and may lead to pulmonary congestion, pulmonary arterial hyperten...
