Case Reports

[Primary biventricular repair for interrupted aortic arch with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and tricuspid valve regurgitation; report of a case].

An interrupted aortic arch was diagnosed in a 10-day-old girl weighing 3.3 kg, as was perimembranous ventricular septal defect (VSD) and severe tricuspid valve regurgitation (TR). The subaortic diameter was 3.6 mm and the aortic valve (3.7 mm in diameter) was bicuspid. We chose definitive repair, modified Yasui procedure, because of severe TR and no straddling of mitral valve. ⋯ Left ventricular outflow tract reconstruction consisted of intracardiac rerouting from the VSD to the pulmonary artery by using expanded-polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) and Damus-Kaye-Stansel (DKS) anastomosis. Right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction was performed by the Rastelli procedure with an ePTFE valved conduit. Moreover, we carried out semicircular annuloplasty for severe TR.

AbstractAn interrupted aortic arch was diagnosed in a 10-day-old girl weighing 3.3 kg, as was perimembranous ventricular septal defect (VSD) and severe tricuspid valve regurgitation (TR). The subaortic diameter was 3.6 mm and the aortic valve (3.7 mm in diameter) was bicuspid. We chose definitive repair, modified Yasui procedure, because of severe TR and no straddling of mitral valve. In primary biventricular repair, we undertook extended aortic arch anastomosis. Left ventricular outflow tract reconstruction consisted of intracardiac rerouting from the VSD to the pulmonary artery by using expanded-polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) and Damus-Kaye-Stansel (DKS) anastomosis. Right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction was performed by the Rastelli procedure with an ePTFE valved conduit. Moreover, we carried out semicircular annuloplasty for severe TR.
