Prevalence and pattern of total and partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection in Indian patients with congenital heart disease

چکیده
Background Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection (TAPVC) is a rare form of congenital heart disease (CHD) in which all pulmonary veins connect to the systemic veins, right atrium or the coronary sinus. Echocardiography is a good screening modality in picking up majority of these cases. Cross sectional imaging is often utilized to establish the anatomy and confirm the diagnoses. In this study we looked at the prevalence and pattern of TAPVC and Partial Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection (PAPVC) in Indian patients with CHD.

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 ...

Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection can be diagnosed by cross sectional echocardiography. Information is, however, lacking concerning the diagnostic accuracy of this imaging method and any factors which may influence it. To predict the pulmonary venous connection 463 patients with congenital heart disease who had angiographic confirmation were prospectively examined. Total anomalous pul...
