Pulmonary Root Translocation with the Lecompte Maneuver: For Transposition of the Great Arteries with Ventricular Septal Defect and Pulmonary Stenosis
A five-month-old boy who had undergone previously transcatheter balloon atrioseptostomy at 3 days of age for complete transposition of the great arteries with ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis underwent pulmonary root translocation with the Lecompte maneuver. This operation has the advantages of maintaining pulmonary valve function, preserving the capacity for growth, and avoidin...
متن کاملPulmonary stenosis with normal aortic root.
Pulmonary stenosis has alw"ays attracted more attention than other forms of congenital heart disease. This was true even in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, when the approach to the whole subject was mainly aitatomical, and for that reason academic. In recent years the surgical treatment of pulmonary stenosis has inevitably aroused further interest and has underlined the need for more d...
متن کاملAortic root characteristics of human pulmonary autografts.
BACKGROUND After pulmonary autograft replacement of the aortic valve and root, the pulmonary artery (PA) wall is subjected to higher pressures. Concern exists that this may lead to structural and functional changes in the implanted autograft and subsequent aortic root dilatation and neoaortic regurgitation. We therefore assessed root dimensions and neoaortic regurgitation, morphological structu...
متن کاملAortic root replacement with pulmonary autograft.
Transfer of the pulmonary valve to the aortic position has been used successfully by Ross for more than 20 years and in our own institution since August 1986. To expand the use of this concept to patients with root disease and/or narrow annulus, we employed the main pulmonary artery with its valve as a conduit to replace the proximal ascending aorta, reimplanting the coronary ostia into the pul...
متن کاملAdverse ventilatory strategy causes pulmonary-to-systemic translocation of endotoxin.
Accumulating evidence strongly suggests that ventilatory strategy has an important impact on development of lung injury and patient outcome. Adverse ventilatory strategies have been shown to cause release of pulmonary-derived cytokines and may permit bacterial translocation from the lung to the systemic circulation. Because endotoxin is a potent and clinically important stimulant of cytokine-me...
