Objective: Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) in children with cardiac arrest refractory to conventional (CPR) has been reported encouraging results. We sought review outcomes of neonates functional single ventricle (FSV) receiving post-cardiotomy ECPR. Methods: Forty-eight patients who required extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) since the introduction our ECPR protocol (January2007–December 2009) were identified. Twenty-seven neonates. Review records and survival...
Abstract OBJECTIVES: We sought to describe early and late outcomes in a large surgical series of patients with anomalous aortic origin coronary arteries. METHODS: performed retrospective multicentre study including arteries since 1991. Patients isolated high takeoff associated major congenital heart disease were excluded. RESULTS: collected 156 (median age 39.5 years, interquartile range 15–53) affected by right (67.9%), left (22.4%) other anatomical abnormalities (9.6%). An interarterial...
Data are limited regarding the management of children with trisomy 21 (T21) syndrome and a functional single ventricle (FSV). We evaluated patients T21 FSV who had total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC).From September 1999 to August 2012, 139 underwent TCPC. Sixty-five unbalanced atrioventricular septal defect. Thirteen T21. Three (of 13) heterotaxy syndrome. The mean age at Fontan operation was 27.6 ± 12.1 months.The initial procedure pulmonary artery banding in 9 patients,...
To compare patient characteristics and overall survival for infants with critical left heart obstruction after hybrid palliation (bilateral pulmonary artery banding or without ductal stenting) versus nonhybrid management (eg, Norwood, primary transplantation, biventricular repair, transcatheter/surgical aortic valvotomy).From 2005 to 2019, 1045 in the Congenital Heart Surgeons' Society cohort underwent interventions across 28 institutions. Using a balancing score propensity analysis, 214 who...
Abstract: Anomalous chordae tendinae (CT) originating from mitral valve leaflet is a rare congenital anomaly. Our case report unique as this anomaly extremely in pediatric age group. The anomalous CT extended anterior to the atrial septum (AS). Surgical repair form of excision, chordoplasty, and posterior annuloplasty was successfully performed. Congenital (MV) or anomalies are rare. In MV AS, surgical experience limited only reported adults adolescents.1-4 We describe an unusual...
