  • Even though some authors have reported on the advantages of early total correction of complex heart disease, for low birth weight premature neonates, most surgeons prefer a multi-step approach to early total correction due to the many problems, such as the technical problems, the cardiopulmonary bypass management and etc. We report here on a successful case of early one-stage total repair of coarctation of the aorta and a ventricular septal defect in a 1,250 gram premature neonate.

  • The present. study reports four cases of congenital heart diseases, who received open heart surgery by the Sarn's Heart-Lung-Machine in the department of Thoracic Surgery, Hanyang University Hospital during the period between July 1975 and May 1976. The Heart-Lung-Machine consisted of the Sarn's five head roller pump motor system (model 5000), heat exchanger, bubble trap, the Rygg-Kyvsgaard oxygenator, and monitors. The priming of pump oxygenator was carried out by the hemodilution method using Hartman's solution and whole blood. Of the four cases of the heart diseases, three whose body weight were below 30kg, received the partial hemodilution priming and the remaining one whose body weight was 52kg received the total hemodilution priming with Hartman's solution alone. The rate of hemodilution was in the average of 60.5ml/kg. Extracorporeal circulation was performed at the perfusion flow rate of the average 94.0ml/kg/min, and at the moderate hypothermia between 35'5"C and 30'5"C of the rectal temperature. In the total cardiopulmonary bypass, arterial blood pressure was anged between 30 mmHg and 85 mmHg, generally maintaining over 60 mmHg and venous pressure was measured between 4 and $23cmH_2O$, generally maintaining below $10cmH_2O$. The first case: The patient, a nine year old girl having the symptoms and physical signs typical to cardiac anomaly was definitely diagnosed as isolated pulmonary stenosis through the cardiac catheterization. There was, however, no cyanosis, no pathological finding by X-ray and E.C.G. tracings. The valvulotomy was performed through the arteriotomy of pulmouary artery under the total cardiopulmonary bypass. Postoperative course of the patient was uneventful, and murmur and the clinical symptoms disappeared. The second case: A 12 year old boy with congenital heart anomaly was positively identified as having ventricular septal defect through the cardiac catheterization. As in the case with the first case, the patient exhibited the symptoms and physical signs typical to cardiac anomaly, but no pathological abnormality by X-ray and E.C.G. tracings. The septal defect was localized on atrioventricular canal and was 2 by 10 mm in size. The septal defect was closed by direct simple sutures under the cardiopulmonary bypass. Postoperative hemodynamic study revealed that the pressure of the right ventricle and pulmonary artery were decreased satisfactory. Postoperative course of the patient was uneventful, and murmur and the clinical symptoms disappeared. The third case: The patient, a 19 year old girl had been experienced the clinical symptoms typical to cardiac anomaly for 16 years. The pink tetralogy of Fallot was definitey diagnosed through the cardiac catheterization. The patient was placed on an ablolute bed rest prior to the operation because of severe exertional dyspnea, fatigability, and frequent syncopal attacks. However, she exhibited very slight cyanosis. Positive findings were noted on E.C.G. tracings and blood picture, but no evidence of pathological abnormality on X-ray was observed. All of the four surgical approaches such as Teflon patch closure (3 by 4cm in size) of ventricular septal defect, myocardial resection of right ventricular outflow tract, valvulotomy of pulmonary valvular stenosis, and pericardial patch closing of ventriculotomy wound were performed in 95 minutes under the cardiopulmonary bypass. Postoperative hemodynamic study revealed that the pressure of the right ventricle was decreased and pulmonary artery was increased satisfactorily. Postoperative course of the patient was uneventful, and murmur and the clinical symptoms disappeared. The fourth case: The patient, a 7 1/4 year old girl had the symptoms of cardiac anomaly for only three years prior to the operation. She was positively identified as having acyanotic tetralogy of Fallot by open heart surgery. The patient showed positive findings by X-ray and E.C.G. tracings, but exhibited no cyanosis and normal blood picture. All of the three surgical approaches, such a myocardial resection of hypertrophic sight ventricular outflow tract, direct suture closing of ventricular septal defect and pericardial patch closing of ventriculotomy wound were carried out in 110 minutes under the cardiopulmonary bypass. Postoperative hemodynamic study revealed that the pressure of the right ventricle was decreased and pulmonary artery was increased satisfactorily. Postoperative course of the patient was uneventful, and the symptoms disappeared.

  • Background: Atrial septal defect (ASD) is the most common congenital heart disease. However, the details of cardiac chamber remodeling after surgery are not well known, although this is an important issue that should be analyzed to understand long-term outcomes. Methods: Between November 2017 and January 2019, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging was performed preoperatively, at a 1-month postoperative follow-up, and at a 1-year postoperative follow-up. Cardiac chamber volume, valve regurgitation volume, and ejection fraction were measured as functions of time. Results: Thirteen patients (10 men and 3 women) were included. The median age at surgery was 51.4 years. The preoperative median ratio of flow in the pulmonary and systemic circulation was 2.3. The preoperative mean right ventricular (RV) end-diastolic volume index (EDVi) and RV end-systolic volume index (ESVi) had significantly decreased at the 1-month postoperative follow-up (p<0.001, p=0.001, respectively). The decrease in the RVEDVi (p=0.085) and RVESVi (p=0.023) continued until the postoperative 1-year follow-up, although the rate of decrease was slower. Tricuspid valve regurgitation had also decreased at the 1-month postoperative follow-up (p=0.022), and continued to decrease at a reduced rate (p=0.129). Although the RVEDVi and RVESVi improved after ASD closure, the RV volume parameters were still larger than the left ventricular (LV) volume parameters at the 1-year follow-up (RVEDVi vs. LVEDVi: p=0.016; RVESVi vs. LVESVi: p=0.001). Conclusion: Cardiac remodeling after ASD closure is common and mainly occurs in the early postoperative period. However, complete normalization does not occur.

  • Surgical treatment of partial endocardial cushion defect was accomplished in Feb. 1984 in this department. The 5 year old male patient had history of frequent upper respiratory tract infection and since his age of 3 years dyspnea on exertion and palpitation were noted but there were no cyanosis and clubbing. A thrill was palpable on the apex and grade IV/IV harsh systolic ejection murmur and diastolic murmur was audible on it. Liver was palpable about 3 finger breadths and no ascites. Chest X-ray revealed increased pulmonary vascularity, moderate cardiomegaly [C-T ratio; 0.69], and enlarged left atrium. EKG showed first degree heart block, RVH, LVH, and LAD. Echocardiogram showed paradoxical ventricular septal movement and abnormal diastolic movement of the anterior leaflet of mitral valve. Right heart catheterization resulted left to right shunt [Qp:Qs:2.1:1 ] and moderate pulmonary hypertension [60/40 mmHg]. Left ventriculogram showed mitral regurgitation [Grade III/IV] and filling of left atrium and right atrium nearly same time. Operative findings were: 1.Primum type atrial septal defect [3x2 cm] 2.Cleft on the anterior leaflet of mitral valve. 3.No interventricular communication and cleft of tricuspid valve leaflet. The mitral cleft was repaired with 4 interrupted sutures. The primum type atrial septal defect was closed with Dacron patch intermittently at endocardial cushion and continuously remainder. The post operative course was uneventful and discharged on 22nd postoperative day in good general conditions.

  • Twenty-three patients underwent operations to repair a congenital heart disease through right anterolateral thoracotomy(RALT) between December 1989 and December 1996. Defects repaired 22 atrial septum(13 ostium secundum;3 lower sepal defect;4 posterior septal defect; 1 sinus venosus;1 ostium primum) and 1 ventricular septal defect. There was no operative mortality or late morbidity directly related to RALT. The RALT incision is a safe and effective me hod to a median sternotomy in selective patients(especicially female). The cosmetic results are very good during the follow up periods.

  • Rastelli repair has been considered the procedure of choice for surgically repairing transposition of the great arteries combined with ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis. However, the long term results have been less than optimal and these patients who ungo this procedure can eventually display conduit obstruction, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and arrhythmias. Many new procedures are now available and they are technically challenging for making a more normal anatomic repair. In our hospital, two patients who had a TGA with VSD and PS have been repaired with a Half Turned Truncal Switch Operation and a Lecompte maneuver in 2003 and 2006, respectively. We report on our two experiences with performing a Half Turned Truncal Switch Operation, and we discuss the changes of the biventricular outflow tract.

  • We clinically evaluated 222 cases of ventricular septal defect which we experienced at Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Pusan National University Hospital between July 1981 and March 1988. These patients were occupied 46.2% of all congenital heart disease operated on its same period. Of 222 cases, 132 patients were male and 90 patients were female. Their age distribution ranged from 8 months to 34 years of age and their mean age was 10.3 years. Among these patients, 86 patients had associated cardiac anomalies, which were patent foramen ovale 43 cases[19.5%], Atrial septal defect 18 cases[8.1%], patent ductus arteriosus 8 cases[3.6%], aortic insufficiency 7 cases[3.2%], infundibular pulmonary stenosis 5 cases[2.3%] and etc. There was statistically significant correlationship between VSD size and Qp/Qs, Rp/Rs, Pp/Ps respectively. All cases were operated under cardiopulmonary bypass and 157 patients[70.7%] would be corrected through right atrial approach. 158 patients[71.2%] underwent closure of ventricular septal defect with primary closure and the remained patients[28.8%] with patch closure. In anatomical classification by Kirklin, type I constituted 23.4%, type II 73.4%, type III 0.5%, type I and type II 1.4%, and type II and type III 1.4%. Important postoperative EGG changes were noted in 57 cases[25.7%] and incomplete right bundle branch block was most common[12.6%]. 54 patients[24.3%] developed minor and major postoperative complications and 9 patients died of several complications and overall operative mortality was 4.1%.

  • During the period from August 1959 to end of July 1980, 69 cases of Type I VSD were noted among 235 cases of ventricular septal defect who were operated utilizing cardiopulmonary bypass in the Department of Cardio-thoracic Surgery, College of Medicine, Seoul National University(29.4%). During the same period 1162 open heart surgery cases were experienced among whom 778 cases were congenital anomalies. There were no significent differences between Type I '||'&'||' other tvpo:s of VSD in sex and age distribution. In Type I VSD frequency of aortic regurgitation association was much higher than rest of the types. (8.7% to 2.6%). Necessity of patch closure in Type I was not different from other types. The high incidence of Type I VSD is quite similar to Japanese references which show quite higher ratio compared with from Euroamerican caucasian patients materials. All cases were operated on with bubble type oxygenator mainly Shiley**" oxygenator utilizing hypothermic hemodilution perfusion technique.echnique.

  • Corrected transposition of great arteries associated with dextrocardia [I.D.D.] is a very rare congenital cardiac malformation in which the atria and ventricles are in discordant relation, as are the ventricles and great arteries, but the aorta is to the right of the pulmonary artery. A 13 year old male patient who complained cyanosis and dyspnea on exertion for 8 years, was diagnosed as congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries associated with dextrocardia [I.D.D.], large ventricular septal defect, patent foramen ovale and pulmonary stenosis. He was operated on Nov. 22 1978. The ventricular septal defect was closed with Teflon felt and the pulmonary hypoplasia was corrected with Rastelli operation successfully. On 34th postoperative days, complete heart block was occurred and permanent epicardial pacemaker was implanted with good result.

  • The patient in whom corrected transposition of the great vessels is an isolated congenital anomaly has a physiologically normal circulation. A 19 year old male was perforemd with surgical correction for congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries (SLL) associated with ventricular septal defect (type I) and severe pulmonary stenosis. After right sided ventriculotomy, ventricular septal defect was repaired with Dacron patch and to provide adequate relief of severe valvar stenosis of pulmonary artery, valvulotomy was done. On immediate postoperative period, complete heart block and lower cardiac output state were ocurred, but adequate blood pressure could be maintained under using of inotropic agent and temporary pace-maker.
