Repair of aortico-left ventricular tunnel in the neonate: surgical, anatomic and echocardiographic considerations.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Repair of aortico--left ventricular tunnel was accomplished for the first time in the neonatal period. The diagnosis was made with two-dimensional echocardiography. Repair was accomplished using an open-patch aortoplasty technique, which prevented valvular insufficiency, a significant problem in older patients in whom the repair has been attempted.

متن کاملAn aortico-left ventricular tunnel with aortic stenosis: Diagnosis based on echocardiography in a neonate.
A very rare case of left-ventricular tunnel is reported. Diagnosis was based on ECHO examination. The differential diagnosis and surgical treatment of aortico-left ventricular tunnel is discussed. (Cardiol J 2007; 14: 193-197).
متن کامل[Successful surgical management of aortico-left ventricular tunnel using modern noninvasive diagnostic imaging methods].
Aortico-left ventricular tunnel is a rare congenital cardiac defect, which bypasses the aortic valve via the paravalvar connection from the aorta to the left ventricle. The authors present the case of a 14-year-old boy with aortico-left ventricular tunnel in whom the aortic orifice arose from the right aortic sinus and was closed by a pericardial patch. The diagnosis was confirmed by combined t...

Aorto-left ventricular tunnel (ALVT) is a rare congenital anomaly in which an abnormal communication connects the ascending aorta with the left ventricle, that results volume overload on left ventricle. It is clinically undistinguishable from aortic insufficiency. Its prompt and precise diagnosis is crucial since early surgical treatment is definitely indicated. In this report clinical,...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to review our 35 years of experience with aortico-left ventricular tunnel (ALVT), with emphasis on diagnosis, surgical details, and follow-up. BACKGROUND Aortico-left ventricular tunnel is a rare congenital anomaly. Neonatal surgery has been advocated in all due to long-term concern of valvar aortic regurgitation (AR). METHODS We identified 11 patien...
