  • Surgical Results of Secondary Subaortic Stenosis after Congenital Heart Disease Operations

    Abstract: Objective To summarize surgical results of secondary subaortic stenosis (SSS) after congenital heart disease (CHD) operations,and analyze the pathogenesis of SSS. Methods We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 19 patients who underwent surgical repair for SSS in Guangdong General Hospital from 1st June 2008 to 31st December 2012. There were 10 males and 9 females. CHD types included double outlet right ventricle,ventricular septal defect and partial atrioventricular septal defect,et al. The median age of the patients when they received their first CHD operations was 4 months (15 days to 5 year and 11 months). The median age of the patients when they received SSS repair was 5 years and 3 months (1 year to 15 years and 3 months). The median time interval from CHD operation to SSS repair was 4 years and 10 months (8 months to 13 years and 11 months). Results All the patients successfully received their SSS repair. There was no surgical death in this study. Median cardiopulmonary bypass time was 79 (39 to 172) minutes,and median aortic cross-clamp time was 42 (22 to 124) minutes. Median postoperative hospital stay was 7 (5 to 9) days. Postoperatively, 1 patient required permanent pacemaker implantation. All the patients were followed up after discharge for a median durationof 1 year and 10 months (5 months to 4 years and 4 months) . During follow-up, none of the patients had any clinical symptom,their heart function was normal,and there was no late death. One patient received another subaortic stenosis repair for gradually aggravating left ventricular outflow tract stenosis. Conclusions SSS is very rare after CHD operations. The pathogenesis of SSS is perhaps related to abnormal blood flows in the left ventricular outflow tract after CHD operations. The pathogenesis time of SSS and types of CHD leading to SSS cannot be predicted. Subaortic stenosis repair is a simple and safe procedure for SSS,but postoperatively left ventricular outflow tract stenosis may appear and aggravate again.

  • Right ventricular decompression for pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum

    ObjectiveTo summarize the experience and lessons of right ventricular decompression in children with pulmonary atresia and intact ventricular septum (PA/IVS) and to reflect on the strategies of right ventricular decompression.MethodsThe clinical data of 12 children with PA/IVS who underwent right ventricular decompression in our hospital from March 2015 to December 2019 were reviewed retrospectively. There were 10 males and 2 females with a median age at the time of surgery was 5 d (range, 1-627 d). Correlation analysis between the pulmonary valve transvalvular pressure gradient and changes in Z score of tricuspid valves after decompression was performed.ResultsOne patient died of refractory hypoxemia due to circulatory shunt postoperatively and family members gave up treatment. There were 2 (16.67%) patients received postoperative intervention. The pulmonary transvalvular gradient after decompression was 31.95±21.75 mm Hg. Mild pulmonary regurgitation was found in 7 patients, moderate in 2 patients, and massive in 1 patient. The median time of mechanical ventilation was 30.50 h (range, 6.00-270.50 h), and the average duration of ICU stay was 164.06±87.74 h. The average postoperative follow-up time was 354.82±331.37 d. At the last follow-up, the average Z score of tricuspid valves was 1.32±0.71, the median pressure gradient between right ventricle and main pulmonary artery was 41.75 mm Hg (range, 21-146 mm Hg) and the average percutaneous oxygen saturation was 92.78%±3.73%. Two children underwent percutaneous balloon pulmonary valvoplasty at 6 and 10 months after surgery, respectively, with the rate of reintervention-free of 81.8%. There was no significant correlation between pulmonary transvalvular gradients after decompression and changes in Z score of tricuspid valves (r=–0.506, P=0.201).ConclusionFor children with PA/IVS, the simple pursuit of adequate decompression during right ventricular decompression may lead to severe pulmonary dysfunction, increase the risk of ineffective circular shunt, and induce refractory hypoxemia. The staged decompression can ensure the safety and effectiveness for initial surgery and reduce the risk of postoperative death.
