Staged Starnes Operation Preserving Patent Ductus Arteriosus for Neonates with Ebstein’s Anomaly and Pulmonary Atresia
نویسندگان
چکیده
We herein reported 2 successful neonates with Ebstein's anomaly and small pulmonary arteries undergoing Starnes operation preserving the patent ductus arteriosus. Subsequent Blalock-Taussig shunt was carried out 1 or 2 months after the first surgery. One case had already undergone a successful Fontan operation, and the other had a successful bidirectional Glenn shunt so far. This staged Starnes strategy might be a safe and simple choice for neonates with Ebstein's anomaly and small pulmonary arteries.

Cardiothoracic ratio upper to 0.60 is a factor of poor prognostic in patients with Ebstein’s anomaly and the prognostic is worse if is associated with others congenital heart disease. We present 4-months black boy with Ebstein’s anomaly associated with atrial septal defect, pulmonary valve atresia and patent ductus arteriosus wherein the cardiothoracic ratio nearly 1.0. The patient died five ho...

OBJECTIVES Transventricular valvotomy is a kind of hybrid therapy that is widely used in developing countries where cardiac catheter intervention is limited in neonates. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the surgical outcomes and effectiveness of transventricular valvotomy in neonates with pulmonary atresia and an intact ventricular septum. METHODS Between August 2008 and July 2013, 2...
متن کاملOutcome of Staged Repair of Tetralogy of Fallot with Pulmonary Atresia and a Ductus-dependent Pulmonary Circulation: Should Primary Repair Be Considered?
BACKGROUND The tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) with pulmonary atresia (PA) and a ductus-dependent pulmonary circulation (no major aorto-pulmonary collateral arteries (MAPCAs)) has been treated with staged repair or primary repair depending on the preference of surgeons or institutions. We evaluated the 19-year outcome of staged repair for this anomaly to find out whether our surgical strategy should ...

Formalin infiltration of the ductus arteriosus was performed in 13 neonates with pulmonary atresia (three with ventricular septal defect, two with tricuspid atresia, and eight with intact ventricular septum, one of whom had Ebstein's anomaly) in an attempt to maintain duct patency. Nine patients had an additional retrograde pulmonary valvotomy and one a Blalock-Taussig shunt. The mean preoperat...
