“…theses in the pediatric population are associated with accelerated tissue calcification and failure. 25 This poorer performance with biologic valves is also consistent with reports of high early mortality and 5-year failure from adult use of mitral homograft valves. 26 Gulbins and colleagues, 27 again in an adult population, report that 3 of 8 complete homografts required replacement within 3 years of surgery.…”

, 20 children 2 to 18 years of age underwent valve replacement with the St, Jude Medical prosthesis. Nine children underwent aortic valve replacement, eight underwent mitral valve replacement, and the three children with corrected transposition underwent left-sided tricuspid valve replacement. Of the 20 patients, 17 underwent 23 previous procedures. AU but five patients received adequate adult-sized prostheses. There was one hospital death (5 %). AU hospital survivors received maintenance doses of sodium warfarin. FoUow-up was 100% complete with a total of 106 patient-years. There were no late deaths and no thromboembolic or anticoagulant-related bleeding. None of the patients had prosthetic valve endocarditis or a periprosthetic leak. Reoperation was not required in any patient. The great majority of the children (16 of 19) were in New York Heart Association functional class I, two were in class Il, and one with complex congenital heart disease was in class In at the time this article was written. This study illustrates the excellent results of cardiac valve replacement with the St. Jude Medical prosthesis in children and confirms the safety of sodium warfarin in this age group.

“…However, available data support the recommendation for oral anticoagulation in children with mechanical prosthetic heart valves. 59,61,62 Furthermore, combination therapy with aspirin and oral anticoagulants may be used in high-risk patients such as those with previous TEs, atrial fibrillation, and a large left atrium. 62 Blalock-Taussig Shunt.…”

Arterial Thromboembolism in the Pediatric Population

The most common cause of arterial thromboembolism in the pediatric population is secondary to arterial catheterization. Non-catheter-related arterial thromboembolism is rare. The frequency of this complication has paralleled the advances in pediatric tertiary care that has lead to increasing numbers of children surviving life-threatening primary illnesses. Previously, these events were very rare and children were managed according to adult protocols. It is now known that the pathophysiology of thrombosis in children differs from that of adults and indeed is different for that of various age groups within the pediatric population, therefore requiring a unique diagnostic and therapeutic approach. This review highlights the available published data to support an evidence-based approach to the complication of arterial thromboembolism in the pediatric population, and underscores the urgent need for further randomized controlled trials.
