Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection: outcome of surgical correction and management of recurrent venous obstruction

Abstract: Intrinsic obstruction (endocardial sclerosis or thickening) is associated with worse prognosis and earlier re-intervention than extrinsic (anatomical) obstruction. We advocate an early, aggressive approach to the management of patients with TAPVC, especially in the presence of PVS. This complication is most appropriately managed by a combination of re-operation and repeated balloon dilation.

Los resultados de este tratamiento vienen mejorando con el paso de las décadas, presentando niveles de mortalidad en descenso en los mayores centros de cirugía cardíaca pediátrica del mundo 2,[4][5][6][7] . En publicaciones anteriores, la mortalidad hospitalaria sufrió influencia de diversos factores, entre ellos la interferencia temporal, el bajo peso en el Basso et al Drenaje anómalo total de las venas pulmonares etc) o con datos insuficientes en los prontuarios.…”
