Thirty-two patients with a cyanotic cardiac malformations having more complex intracardiac defects than ones in a tetralogy of Fallot underwent complete intracardiac repairs in a-full-year period from July 1981 to June 1982. Twenty-two patients [68.8%] died within 30 days after surgery: Transposition of the great arteries, seven of 10 patients; Double-outlet right ventricle, four of 6 patients; Tricuspid atresia, four of 6 patients; Single ventricle, all of 4 patients; Pulmonary atresia, two of 3 patients; Double-outlet left ventricle, none of 2 patients; and Truncus arteriosus, one of a single patient. All deaths occurred with a low cardiac output syndrome or a failed off-bypass, and they were almost always accompanied with other grave postoperative complications. The complex intracardiac anatomy itself was one of the risk factors by making a complete intracardiac repair of the defects difficult in a small heart. The reconstruction of the right ventricular outflow carried a difficulty in balancing an adequate relief of the obstruction with an avoidance of making too much pulmonary valvular insufficiency as well. On the other hand, the presence of an elevated pulmonary arterial pressure and a high pulmonary vascular resistance was also the factors affecting the postoperative surviv als. The importance of detailed knowledge of intracardiac anatomy and hemodynamics from the careful preoperative evaluation of the patient was discussed along with the necessity of technical refinement of the correction.
Seventy eight patients underwent operation for combined multiple valve disease, with an overall early mortality of 14.1 % from January, 1983 to September, 1988 in the department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery of Pusan National University Hospital. All of the above cases had combined multiple valve procedures. There were 33 mitral valve replacements and tricuspid annuloplasties, 33 aortic and mitral valve replacements, 5 aortic and mitral valve replacements with tricuspid annuloplasties, 3 aortic valve replacements and mitral annuloplasties, 1 open mitral commissurotomy and tricuspid annuloplasty and, 1 mitral valve replacement and primary closure of tricuspid valve cleft, 1 mitral valve replacement and aortic commissurotomy, 1 mitral, aortic and tricuspid valve replacement were done. 44 were male and 34 were female and the age distribution was from 14 to 57 with mean 38 year old. According to NYHA[New York Heart Association] classification, 49 patients were class I, 19 patients were class Il and 10 were class IV. Average perfusion time was 205.3 minutes. The live patients perfusion time was 178.7 minutes while that of dead ones was 272.0 minutes. Early deaths within 30 days from operation were 11 cases, 6 of which were due to low cardiac output, 3 were acute renal failure and 2 were cardiac rupture. The 65 patients were followed up from 2 to 30 months for a total 20.6 patient years. 1 patient committed suicide because of postoperative depression 1 year after operation. All of the survivors were enjoying their daily life and their NYHA class was superior to the preoperative ones.
A total and consecutive 46 patients have undergone cardiac valvular surgery including 8 open mitral commissurotomy and 38 mitral, aortic, mitral-aortic, mitral-tricuspid, tricuspid valve replacements using 46 artificial valves in a period between September 1976 and July 1981. They were 19 males and 27 females with the age ranging from 16 to 50 (mean 32.6) years. Out of 46 valves replaced, 6 were prosthetic valves and 40 were tissue valves, and 33 were replaced in mitral, 9 in aortic and 3 In tricuspid position. Isolated replacements were 33 mitral valves, 6 aortic valves and 1 tricuspid valve; double valve replacements were 6 mitral-aortic valves and 2 mitral-tricuspid valves. . Early mortality within 30 days after operation was noted in 4 cases; 3 after MVR and 1 after open mitral commissurotomy. Causes of death were thrombus obstruction of Beall-Surgitool, Cerebral air embolism, acute renal shut down due to low output syndrome, and left upper pUlmonary vein rupture after open mitral commissurotomy (early mortality 8.7%). 3 late deaths were noted during the follow-up period from 2 to 59 months; 1 due to cerebral hemorrhage from warfarin overdose 3 months, 1 due to miliary tuberculosis 9 months, and another 1 due to cardiac failure after open mitral commissurotomy 42 months postoperatively. Total survival rate 59 months after valvular surgery was 84.8%; there were no early and late death in the group of AVR, TVR and double valve replacements. Preoperative NYHA Class III & IV were 35 cases (76%) out of total 46 cases, and 38 cases (94.8%) out of 39 survival cases were included In NYHA Class I & II during the follow-up period.
The author analyzed 99patients with VSD weighting less than 10kg of body weight who underwent surgical correction from 1981 to 1992 at cardiovascular department of Hanyang University hospital. Patients occupied 29.3% of total cases who were underwent surgical corrections for congenital heart diseases during that time. Of the 99 patients, 51 patients were male [52%] and 48 patients[48%] were female. Age ranged from 28 days to 36 months with mean age of 13.6 months. Mean body weight was 7.53kg. According to Kirklin`s anatomical classification, type II defect was most common [61.6%]. Associated anomaly was found in 48 patients [48.5%]. Patent foramen ovale was most commonly associated cardiac anomaly [14.1%] and followed by atrial septal defect [12.1%], patent ductus arteriosus [10.1%]. Cardiac catheterization data were analyzed. The most common range of Qp/Qs, Rp/Rs, Pp/Ps were above 3.0, 0.1 - 0.25, and above 0.75 respectively. Among the indications of surgical correction, there were pulmonary hypertention in 69 patients, congestive heart failure in 44 patients, frequent respiratory infection in 47 patients, growth retardation in 33 patients. The most common surgical approach and method for VSD closure were right atriotomy[48.3%] and dacron patch closure[93.3%]. Complication rate was 13.1% [13 cases], and overall mortality was 17.1% [17 cases]. The cause of death consisted of low cardiac output syndrome[11 cases], acute renal failure[3 cases], sepsis[2 cases] and pulmonary insufficiency[1 case] in order of frequency.
The vasodilatory shock after cardiopulmonary bypass is defined as the condition involving severe and persistent form of hypotension, tachycardia, normal or increased cardiac output and decreased systemic vascular resistance. Because of the unsuccessful response to infusion of fluids or catecholamine vasopressors, a sustained systemic shock state occurs and results in a high morbidity and mortality. We successfully treated this syndrome of 3 patients after open heart surgery with low dose of arginine vasopressin(AVP). Therefore, we report these cases with a review of related articles.
Total 632 cases of open heart surgery were performed in the department of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery, Pusan Paik Hospital, Inje University from october 1985 to december 1990. Among them, there were 503 cases of congenital heart disease and 129 cases of acquired heart disease. In the cases of 503 congenital heart disease surgically corrected, 122 cases over 15 years of age were reviewed and its results were summarized as follows ; l. In total 122 cases 65 were male and 52 female. 2. There were 54 patients under 20 years of age, 31 between 20 & 24 years, 20 between 25 & 29 and 17 over 30 years of age. The eldest was a 46-year-old female of atrial septal defect group. 3. There were 63 cases of VSD[51.7%], 38 of ASD[31.2%], 11 cases of TOF[9%] and so on. 4. In recovery cases, main post-operative complications were as follows; cardiac tamponade, arrhythmia, low cardiac output syndrome, pulmonary, edema pericarditis, mediastinitis, sepsis and DIC. 5. There were 3 cases of post-operative death in this series, so operative mortality rate was 2.5% compairing with 1.8% of pediatric cases below 15 years of age. 6. This reviewed series reveal that aggressive surgical approach in adult congenital heart disease can be justified with low operative mortality like as pediatric age group.
Operations for cardiac valvular disease has been progressed in various ways. Since 1949 when Lord Russel operated mitral stenosis by closed technique at Johns Hopkins Hospital then much progress has been achieved and that nowadays severely diseased cardiac valve has been replaced by prosthetic valve, which is almost ideal in hemodynamic aspect, but still it has many problems such as thromboembolism, destruction of red blood cell, pressure gradient, and disturbance of left ventricular function, so in case of delicate situations, valve replacement should be decided carefully. Besides prosthetic valve, there are some kinds of reconstructive procedures and these have been resulted in better prognosis than prosthetic valve replacement in selected cases. So, authors have reviewed 61 Cases of cardiac patients who have been operated reconstructive valvular surgery by cardiopulmonary bypass, at Yonsei University, from Jan. 1963 to Mar. 1976. Out of 61 cases, 9 patients were replaced by prosthetic valve and rest of the patients were operated upon in various reconstructive procedures such as commissurotomy, valvotomy, valvuloplasty, and annuloplasty. Twenty cases of congenital heart diseases with valvular lesion, which had been operated for valvular lesion were also included in this statistics. Out of 9 cases of prosthetic valvular replacement five cases of prosthetic valvular replacement was done combined with other reconstructive procedures after attempted valvuloplasty. Comparative prognosis of both procedures are somewhat variable by reporters, average 19% of mortality after reconstructive surgery and 38% of mortality after prosthetic valve replacement in long term results. Most common cause of death in postoperative period was low output syndrome in both cases. It seems that good preoperative evaluation and proper reconstructive surgery will afford good prognosis in selected cardiac valvular diseased patient.
In the department of chest surgery of Pusan National University hospital cardiac valve surgery was done in 118 cases from March, 1982, to June, 1986. Among these, 90 were mitral valve replacement, 9 mitral commissurotomy, 5 mitral valvuloplasty, 4 aortic valve replacement, 4 double valve replacement, 4 mitral annuloplasty, one mitral annuloplasty with commissurotomy and valvuloplasty. 48 were male and 70 were female and age distribution ranged from 6 to 57 years [mean 30.6 years]. Early death within 30 days after operation was 14 cases: 10 had mitral valve replacement, 2 double valve replacement and 2 mitral annuloplasty respectively. Confirmed causes of death were low cardiac output syndrome in 9 cases, congestive heart failure in one case, cardiac tamponade in one case, malfunction of valve in one case, cardiac rupture in one case and renal failure in one case. The 104 cases were followed up for a total 190 years and range was from 2 to 54 months [Mean*SD: 21.9*16.5 months]. During follow-up period, 2 late deaths were developed: one was due to subdural hematoma and the other was congestive heart failure combined with fulminant hepatitis. Anticoagulation therapy was done with warfarin to the level of 20 to 40% of normal prothrombin time in 53 cases, dipyridamole and aspirin in 18 cases, or ticlopidine hcl in 15 cases. The frequency of bleeding due to anticoagulation therapy was 1.0% episodes per patient-years: one was in warfarin group and another was in dipyridamole and aspirin group. Among the studied 102 cases, 93 cases [91.2%] of patients were in NYHA class I or II during follow up period.
Ventricular septal defect was the most common congenital Heart disease admitted to the Severance Hospital from December, 1963 to June 30. 1977. A total of 1,811 cardiac patients received cardiac catheterization in the CardiacCenter of Yonsei University Medical College. Out of the 1,811 cardiac patients, 791 cases had congenital heart disease and of these 172 cases had ventricular septal defect. This amounted to 21.7% of all those with congenital heart disease. Seventy cases of ventricular septal defect operated on in the chest surgery department are presented. Of these 70 cases of ventricular septal defect, 54 cases were male and 16 cases were female. Their ages ranged from 4/12 months to 32 years. The ratio of systolic pressure of the main pulmonary to systemic artery [Pp/Ps] for 29 of the 59 isolated ventricular septal defects was below 45 percent. Pp/Ps ratio for 19 of the 59 isolated ventricular septal defects was 75 percent. The patients were mostly below fifteen years of age. Out of 64 cases, there were 36 cases of type II defects, 20 cases of type I, 4 cases of type III , 2 cases of type IV, one case of both type II and one case of left ventricular right atrial communication. The anomalies associated with ventricular septal defect were 13 in all; 4 cases of aortic insufficiency, 3 cases of ruptured aneurysm of the sortie sinus of valsalva, 2 cases of ruptured aneurysm of the sortie sinus of valsalva with aortic insufficiency, 2 cases of patent ductus arteriosus, one case of ruptured aneurysm of the aortic sinus of valsalva with atrial septal defect [secundum type] and one case of atrial septal defect [secundum type]. Overall mortality was 8.6 percent. The mortality in pulmonary artery banding was 37.5 percent. The causes of mortality were in one case congestive heart failure, in one case asphyxia and in one case respiratory insufficiency. Tile mortality in ventricular septal defect associated with pulmonary hypertension was 7.1 percent. The cause of mortality was in one case low cardiac output syndrome. There was no mortality in the ventricular septal defects without pulmonary hypertension and mortality in the ventricular septal defect. In ventricular septal defect associated with combined anomalies, the causes mortality were in one case respiratory insufficiency and in one case congestive heart failure.
It has been suggested that mixed venous $O_{2}$ tension is a predicor of cardiac output especially in a critically ill patient after an open heart surgery. From April 1988 through September 1989, we monitored mixed venous $O_{2}$ tension and pulmonary arterial pressure in 48 patients with acyanotic congenital heart disease at postoperative 1 hour, 6 hour, 12 hour, 24 hour, and 48 hour respectively. They were divided into Group I, with severe pulmoary hypertension, and Group II, without severe pulmonary hypertension. In Group I, mixed venous $O_{2}$ tension and cardiac index showed significant increase with time (p<0.05), but the ratio of pulmonary-aortic systolic pressure didn't show significant change. The increase was significant only 24 hour after operation, and so this low cardiac performance in early postoperative period should be considered when postoperative management is being planned in the risky patient. In Group II, all of the three variables didn't show any significant change with time. The correlation coefficient between mixed venous $O_{2}$ tension and cardiac index was significantly different from zero in both Group I (p<0.001) and group II (p<0.05) at each imeperiod, but the ratio of pulmonary-aortic systolic pressure didn't correlated well with the other 2 variables. Our study showed that serial determination of mixed venous $O_{2}$ tension in acyanotic congenital heart disease could be used as a guide in estimating the cardiac index postoperatively.
