Hybrid stent implantation to the pulmonary artery from peripheral access via recruited systemic-pulmonary shunt

چکیده
The implantation of vascular stents in patients with low body weight and difficult anatomy of the stenosis needs individual cannulation strategy or a hybrid approach. We present a successful balloon angioplasty with direct stent implantation to severe ostial stenosis of the left pulmonary artery to xenograft anastomosis (LPA) in a 6-year-old boy late after surgical correction of pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect. Peripheral approach to LPA was possible after surgical rethoracotomy and the recruitment of a left Blalock-Taussig (BT) shunt stump. The cooperation of cardiovascular intervention with surgical approach appears a safe strategy for borderline patients referred for staged treatment of complex congenital heart defects.

Use of mathematical modeling to compare and predict hemodynamic effects between hybrid and surgical Norwood palliations for hypoplastic left heart syndrome.
BACKGROUND Combining bilateral pulmonary artery banding with arterial duct stenting, the hybrid approach achieves stage 1 palliation for hypoplastic left heart syndrome with different flow characteristics than those after the surgical Norwood procedures. Accordingly, we used computational modeling to assess some of these differences, including influence on systemic and cerebral oxygen deliverie...

We present the case of a 3-month-old infant with tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) with pulmonary artery hypoplasia, critical right ventricle outflow tract (RVOT) obstruction and the presence of major aortopulmonary collateral arteries (MAPCA) and CATCH 22 syndrome. Due to anatomical conditions (severe pulmonary artery hypoplasia), the patient was not qualified for palliative operative treatment Blaloc...
متن کاملLeft Pulmonary Artery Stenting with Glenn Shunt: Introducing a Hybrid Procedure
Complexity of some congenital heart diseases sometimes necessitates a combination of interventional procedures and surgery, amongst which intraoperative stent implantation is one of the most common. We herein report a successful hybrid procedure in a cyanotic adult patient who had undergone no procedure in childhood. The patient was a 24-year-old cyanotic male (oxygen saturation in the room air...

After having undergone surgical correction at an early age, many patients with tetralogy of Fallot develop long-term complications including progressive pulmonary regurgitation and peripheral pulmonary stenosis. A high percentage of these patients need to undergo a second operation in their adolescence or early adulthood. If simultaneous treatment of both pulmonary regurgitation and peripheral ...

Vascular stenoses and hypoplasia in children are often associated with congenital heart disease or occur as a residual lesion or complications after surgical repair. Among these lesions, branch pulmonary artery stenoses are the commonest, other lesions include coarctation of aorta, stenosis of systemic veins after Fontan repairs, post-operative pulmonary venous stenosis, aortopulmonary collater...
