Emergency stenting of vertical vein in a neonate with obstructed supracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A late preterm newborn baby presented with respiratory distress and increasing cyanosis within 2 hours of birth. Bedside transthroracic echocardiography showed a critically obstructed vertical vein in a supracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage (TAPVd). Emergency stenting of the vertical vein was successfully performed at 24 hours of life.

In total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC), pulmonary venous blood flow abnormally returns to join the systemic venous tributary or right atrium, and the pulmonary vascular resistance may be elevated if a form of obstruction occurs in this circuit (1). Neonates and infants with obstructed TAPVC can present with severe cyanosis, pulmonary hypertension, and low cardiac output, requiri...

INTRODUCTION Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection is an uncommon congenital heart disease. Four types are described based on the site of pulmonary venous drainage: supracardiac, cardiac, infradiaphragmathic, and mixed connection. In most cases of supracardiac type, the common venous confluence drains through an ascending left vertical vein into the brachiocephalic vein, right superior ve...

OBJECTIVES Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is a rare congenital heart disease. This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes of TAPVC repair in neonates, controlling for anatomic subtypes and surgical techniques. METHODS Between 1997 and 2013, 88 patients (median age: 16 days) underwent repair for supracardiac (31), cardiac (18), infracardiac (36), or mixed (3) TAPVC. All the ...
متن کاملTranscatheter Closure of Partially Ligated Vertical Vein after Surgical Correction of Supracardiac Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection.
Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is an anomaly in which the pulmonary veins are directly connected to one of the systemic veins or drain into the right atrium. Management of pulmonary hypertension after the total correction of this congenital cardiac anomaly is very important. Unligation of the vertical vein in the supracardiac type of this anomaly can be a draining pathway f...

Objectives: Postoperative low cardiac output may persist after repair of total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage (TAPVD) because of a relatively small and non-compliant left atrium and left ventricle. We examined the effects of selective vertical vein patency on postoperative hemodynamics. Methods: Thirty-four patients less than 3 months of age with TAPVD were operated from July 1993 to June ...
