Successful pregnancy in a patient with double outlet left ventricle after a Rastelli operation using a prosthetic valve.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A woman with double outlet left ventricle (DOLV) had undergone a Rastelli operation using a prosthetic Björk Shiley valve and who was receiving anticoagulant drug delivered a healthy male infant. Oral warfarin was replaced by heparin from the 5th to the 13th week of gestation and for the last 5 weeks of gestation. Successful pregnancy in patients with DOLV after a Rastelli operation using a prosthetic valve is possible with careful maintenance.

Biventricular repair of complete atrioventricular canal, double-outlet right ventricle and common atrium using a modified double switch technique. A valid alternative to univentricular procedure.
An eleven month-old child underwent a successful modified double switch operation for total correction of complete atrioventricular canal, double outlet right ventricle, noncommitted ventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, common atrium and anomalous left superior vena cava to an unroofed coronary sinus. We describe the technique of modified double switch operation, utilizing an atrial s...

Postoperative hemodynamic studies in five patients document subaortic obstruction after surgical repair utilizing an intracardiac baffle to establish continuity between the left ventricle and the aorta. Four of the patients had a Rastelli procedure for D-transposition of the great arteries with a ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis; one patient had repair of double outlet right ven...

Double outlet right ventricle (DORV) and transposition of the great arteries (TGA) with ventricular septal defect (VSD) and pulmonary stenosis (PS) are complex heart diseases, the treatment of which remains a surgical challenge. The Rastelli procedure is still the most commonly performed treatment. Aortic root translocation including an arterial switch operation is advantageous anatomically sin...
متن کاملNovel method for delivering the Amplatzer muscular VSD occluder in a patient with double outlet right ventricle after bidirectional Glenn procedure and pulmonary artery band.
We report the first use of bilateral femoral venovenous rail creation for the delivery of an Amplatzer Muscular Ventricular Septal Defect Occluder in a patient with a large mid-to-apical muscular ventricular septal defect before Rastelli operation. The presence of a right-sided bidirectional Glenn shunt, a banded main pulmonary artery, and double outlet right ventricle anatomy precluded the use...
متن کاملSuccessful catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia in a patient with congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries after double switch operation
Ventricular tachycardia (VT) may cause sudden death late after repair of congenital heart disease. Radiofrequency catheter ablation (CA) of VT can be effective but may be hampered by hypertrophied myocardium or prosthetic material. A 33-year-old man with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA) had undergone a double switch operation (DSO) with the combined Mustard and...
