Anaesthetic management for hip arthroplasty in a 46-yr-old patient with uncorrected truncus arteriosus type IV.

چکیده
In modern adult anaesthetic practice uncorrected complex congenital heart lesions are rare. Persistent truncus arteriosus accounts for only 1.2-3% of all congenital heart malformations. If not corrected, fewer than 20% of these patients survive the first year of life. Here we report the successful management of an adult patient with uncorrected truncus arteriosus who presented for hip arthroplasty.

We experienced a 33-year-old woman with uncorrected typ...

متن کاملTruncus arteriosus communis with survival to the age of 46 years: case report.
Truncus arteriosus communis is an uncommon congenital cardiovascular malformation characterized by a single arterial trunk that arises from the base of the heart and gives rise to the coronary, pulmonary and systemic arteries. The prognosis in truncus arteriosus is very poor without surgical correction. The median age at death without surgery ranges from 2 weeks to 3 months, with 85 % mortality...
