Congenital Cardiac Anomalies Jaime S. Nuevo MD
Acyanotic heart diseases Left to right shunts PDA ASD VSD AP WINDOW COMBINATION
Clinical manifestations Failure to thrive Heart murmur RV failure in older age group Infective endocarditis
Diagnostic work up Non invasive ECG
Chest X Ray 2D Echo with doppler Cine CT Scan
Invasive
Hemodynamic studies Angiogram Electrophysiology study
management Medical mangement
Treatment for heart failure Lower pulmonary hypertension Treatment for infective endocarditis Prepare patient for surgery
Catheter base treatment Coil closure of PDA Umbrella closure of ASD Umbrella closure of VSD
Surgical treatment
PDA ligation/transection Open heart srgery ASD closure VSD closure AP window patching
common complex cardiac anomalies Tetralogy of fallot Transposition of great arteries Total anomalous pulmonary venous return Pulmonary valve atresia with intact septum Hypoplastic left heart syndrome
tetralogy of fallot RV hypertrophy Infundibulovalvar stenosis Overriding of the aorta VSD
indications for total correction Pulmonary artery size 2D Echo or Angiogram Age 6 months or older Cyanotic spells
Palliative Procedures Increase flow to the lungs PA growth
Blalock Taussig Shunt
Waterston Shunt
Result Mortality
<5 % in total correction >10% in palliative operation
Transposition of the Great arteries TGA intact septum with PDA TGA VSD,ASD and PDA TGA VSD with Coarctation of Aorta Other combinations
Natural Course 5 % will reach 1year old 95 % will die before the reach the age of one year
Age
Indication for Arterial Switch operation
5 - 15 days old - ASO >21 days - BAS 30 days - 60 days for TGA with VSD LV Mass - 70 grams With other anomalies - stage procedure or other types of repair
Other Procedures Mustard operation Senings operation Both are atrial switch or physiologic operation
Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return
Intracardiac or coronary sinus drainage Supracardiac type Infracardiac type Mixed type [mixture of any anomalous drainage]
Indications for Surgery Upon diagnosis
Urgent correction if venous drainage are obstructed
Pulmonary Valve Atresia Intact Septum Usually associates with obligatory shunts [PFO or PDA]
Types Membranous valve atresia Muscular type tripartite RV bipartite RV monopartite RV
Types of Correction Biventricular repair
Membranous types Tripartite RV Univentricular repair [Fontan operation} bipartite RV monopartite RV
Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome Underdeveloped LV Hypoplastic aortic arc Mitral valve atresia VSD PDA
Norwood Operation Stage I - 1 month Stage II - 6 months to pre school Glen Shunt Stage III -
school age
Fontan operation
Norwood operation Result
Stage I - 8 % - 40 % Stage II - 8% - 20 % Over all survival usually 20- 30 %
