Abstract

A 3 month old female baby, who had been diagnosed with right atrial isomerism associated with total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR), a functional single ventricle and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries (MAPCA), underwent left MAPCA unifocalization and left Blalock-Taussig shunt (3.5 mm) at 3 months of age. The post-operative course was complicated by pulmonary venous congestion, and the drainage site of the TAPVR was found to be stenotic on echocardiography. We performed sutureless repair of the TAPVR along with unifocalization of the right MAPCA. She was put on an extracorporeal membrane oxygenator for 8 days after the 2nd operation, and she was able to come off the oxygenator with the placement of a central shunt (3 mm). She developed tracheal stenosis, which was presumably due to longstanding endotracheal intubation, and she then underwent tracheostomy. She was discharged to home on day 104 after the 1st operation, and she has been followed up for 2 months in a good clinical condition.

기능성 단 심실, 폐동맥 폐쇄, 주 대동맥-폐동맥 측부 혈관, 총폐정맥 환류 이상이 동반된 우심방 이성체의 진단을 받은 여아가 청색증의 악화로 생후 3개월째 좌측 주 대동맥-폐동맥 측부 혈관 단일화 수술 및 좌측 변형 Blalock-Taussig 단락술을 시행하였다. 수술 후 흉부 x-ray 상 폐정맥 울혈의 소견을 보여 시행한 심장 초음파 검사 상 폐정맥 협착이 발견되어 총폐정맥 환류 이상에 대한 무 봉합 술식 및 우측 주 대동맥-폐동맥 측부 혈관에 대한 단일화 수술을 같이 시행하였다. 수술 후 저산소증으로 인한 심폐기 이탈 실패로 8일간 체외 막형 산화기로 보조하였으며, 전신-폐 단락술을 추가하면서 체외 막형 산화기를 이탈할 수 있었다. 환아는 장기간의 기관 삽관으로 유발된 기관 협착으로 기관지 절개를 한 상태에서 1차 수술 후 104일째 퇴원하였고, 산소 투여 없이 산소 포화도 80% 정도로 유지하면서 2개월째 외래 관찰 중이다.
