  • The Application of Palliative Operation in Staged Surgical Management of Pulmonary Atresia with Ventricular Septal Defect

    Abstract: Objective To assess the effects of three different palliative procedures including modified BlalockTaussig (B-T) shunt, Waterston shunt, and reconstruction of right ventricularpulmonary artery (RV-PA) continuity for pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect (PAVSD). Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 93 patients with PAVSD who had undergone palliative surgical procedures including modifie BT shunt, Waterston shunt, and RVPA econstruction in Fu Wai Hospital from September 1998 to September 2008. There were 53 males and 40 females, aged from 14.0 days to 14.4 years, with the body weight ranged from 3.6 to 33.0 kg (9.9±6.3 kg). According to International Congenital Heart Surgery Nomenclature and Database Project, these patients were categorized into 2 groups: 64 of type Ⅰ and 29 of type Ⅱ. The most common associated anomaly is rightsided aortic arch (except for ventricular septal defect). The application of the three kinds of palliative surgical procedures in staged management of PAVSD and the followup results were statistically analyzed. Results The corrective rate of the three palliative procedures were 28.12% (18/64) for modified BT shunt, 7.14%(1/14) for Waterston shunt, and 66.67% (10/15) for RV-PA reconstruction, respectively. RV-PA reconstruction had a significantly higher corrective 〖CM(1585mm〗rate than the other two surgical procedures (P=0.016). The percutaneous oxygen saturation (SpO2) increased by 4%59% and Nakata index by 31-104 mm2/m2. No tortuous pulmonary artery was found under echocardiogram or angiocardiography after palliative operation. The perioperative mortality of both surgical stages was 10 patients. Twostage radical surgery was successfully performed for 25 patients, among whom 20 were followed up till May 2009. During the followup, one died suddenly, 15 were classified as New York Heart Association (NYHA) Ⅰ, and 4 as NYHA Ⅱ. Conclusion The surgical management of PAVSD needs to be improved continuously. Compared with shunting procedures, the RVPA reconstruction is a better palliative operation method, and the modified B-T shunt is preferred in younger patients.
