Impact of abnormal septal geometry on cardiac output in Ebsteins anomaly with tricuspid regurgitation compared to repaired Tetralogy of Fallot
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction We previously found reduction of cardiac index (CI) in patients with tricuspid regurgitation (TR) due to Ebstein anomaly, but not in patients with comparable right ventricular (RV) volume loading due to pulmonary regurgitation (PR) in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (rTOF). We postulated that the difference may be attributable to impaired left ventricular (LV) filling caused by leftward bulging of the atrialized portion of the RV in Ebstein patients.

Right ventricular Hemodynamic Alteration after Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Children with Congenital Heart Disease
Introduction: In patients who underwent surgery to repair Tetralogy of Fallot, right ventricular dilation from pulmonary regurgitation may be result in right ventricular failure, arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Hence, pulmonary valve replacement may be necessary to reduce right ventricular volume overload. The aim of present study was to assess the effects of pulmonary valve replacement on rig...

Background: Tetralogy of Fallot is the most common cyanotic congenital heart disease. The systolic and diastolic function in both ventricles is altered even after successful corrective surgery for this defect with a transannular patch. Pulmonary regurgitation, a common complication after this treatment, is usually well tolerated in childhood. The aim of this study was to assess the combined dia...
متن کاملPhysiologic determinants of exercise capacity in patients with different types of right-sided regurgitant lesions: Ebstein's malformation with tricuspid regurgitation and repaired tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary regurgitation.
BACKGROUND Exercise capacity relates to right ventricular (RV) volume overload in congenital heart disease and may improve after surgery. We herewith investigate the relation between exercise capacity, cardiac index, and RV volume overload due to tricuspid regurgitation (TR) in Ebstein's malformation and pulmonary regurgitation (PR) after repair of tetralogy of Fallot (rToF). METHODS We measu...
متن کاملEarly post operative mortality of Total Correction of Tetralogy of Fallot
Introduction: Since 1954, after the first surgical repair of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), several innovations have occurred in cardiac surgery, especially in children. One stage complete repair of TOF is currently possible even in infancy; however, complications such as hypoxemia, arrhythmia, cardiac dysfunction, sudden death, and valvular disorders may happen. In this study, we evaluated the res...
متن کاملThree-dimensional echocardiography in adult congenital heart disease
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is now more common in adults than in children due to improvements in fetal echo, neonatal and pediatric care, and surgical techniques leading to dramatically increased survivability into adulthood. Adult patients with CHD, regardless of prior cardiac surgery, experience further cardiac problems or therapeutic challenges; therefore, a non-invasive, easily accessibl...
