The atrioventricular (AV) conduction system in corrected transposition of the great arteries (cTGA) involving situs inversus
remains unclear. A case of cTGA involving situs inversus, mild pulmonary stenosis, and ventricular septal defect (VSD) is
reported. An electrophysiologic study using the CARTO system and angiography was performed to identify the AV conduction system
before a double-switch operation with VSD enlargement. The His bundle was located at the anteroseptum of the left-sided RA.
It descended along the posteroinferior margin of the VSD with cTGA involving situs inversus and a normal-sized pulmonary trunk.
No AV block occurred after surgery. The combination of the CARTO system and angiography could be useful for identifying the
conduction system. 相似文献

Physiologically corrected transposition of the great arteries (cTGA), defined by discordant atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial
connections, is an uncommon congenital cardiac malformation. It rarely exists without associated cardiac anomalies, the most
common of which are ventricular septal defect, pulmonary outflow obstruction, tricuspid valve (systemic) deformity, and rhythm
disturbances. Conversely, hypoplasia of the systemic ventricle and systemic inflow or outflow obstructions have seldom been
reported, although their recognition may significantly influence surgical repair and the patient's prognosis. We report a
case of cTGA with complete heart block, moderate hypoplasia of the systemic ventricle, and severe aortic coarctation that
was echocardiographically diagnosed in utero at 30 weeks' gestation because of fetal growth retardation and persistent fetal
bradycardia. After delivery the patient underwent epimyocardial pacemaker implantation and aortic coarctation repair at 2
weeks of age. Unfortunately, the patient died on the seventh postoperative day because of systemic ventricular hypertrophy.
Although it is well known that fetal echocardiography may reliably diagnose uncommon congenital cardiac malformations, to
the best of our knowledge, this paper represents the first reported case of antenatal diagnosis of this complex anomaly. 相似文献

The case of a 64-year-old woman who underwent corrected transposition of the great arteries with significant systemic atrioventricular
valve regurgitation and complete atrioventricular block is described. The patient underwent implantation of a DDD-type pacemaker
and experienced relief of symptoms after discharge. Follow-up evaluation 30 months after the pacemaker implantation demonstrated
a decrease in the cardiothoracic ratio on chest X-ray, the b-type natriuretic peptide level, and regurgitation at the systemic
atrioventricular valve. 相似文献

A case of unusual longevity to the age of 58 years is reported for a female patient with complete transposition of the great
arteries. The association with a wide atrial septal defect with intact interventricular septum may have contributed to the
long survival without surgery. Factors determining intercirculatory mixing and systemic oxygen saturation may be the high
pulmonary flow, the location of the anatomic communication, sufficient hemoglobin concentration to allow an adequate level
of systemic resistance and recirculated systemic flow, and the belated development of pulmonary vascular disease. 相似文献

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been increasingly employed in the evaluation of aortic arch abnormalities. We present
a rare form of vascular ring, that of a right aortic arch with mirror-image branching and left ligamentum arteriosus, which
was clearly defined preoperatively by MRI. The patient subsequently underwent successful surgical division of the vascular
ring followed by improvement in respiratory symptoms. 相似文献

Exercise Studies in Patients with Transposition of the Great Arteries After Atrial Repair Operations (Mustard/Senning): A Review 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Exercise evaluation studies of patients after atrial repair surgery for transposition of the great arteries, as in tetralogy of Fallot, represent only a small fraction of the 3970 Medline references (1966 to mid-1997) concerning this congenital heart lesion. We have abstracted data from 27 studies from 20 institutions reporting on measurements during exercise on work capacity, heart rate response, respiratory gas exchange, or radionuclide/radiographic systemic ventricular ejection fraction measurements in addition to resting pulmonary function measurements. These studies provide almost uniform general conclusions that even after 20 or more years of follow-up (1) most patients ``report' that they are asymptomatic in performing usual levels of physical activities; (2) significant abnormalities are present, often in more than half of the patients studied, in one or more of the exercise measurements when compared to control subjects; and (3) the diminished exercise performance is related to a diminished cardiac output, results from diminished stroke volume but is also related to a blunted heart rate response. 相似文献

Multiple cardiac rhabdomyomas are frequently associated with tuberous sclerosis. However, very few cardiac malformations
have been described with tuberous sclerosis. We report an unusual case of tuberous sclerosis with cerebral and renal lesions
associated with dextrotransposition of the great arteries, pulmonary atresia, patent ductus arteriosus, multiple ventricular
septal defects, and parachute mitral valve deformity. After reviewing other cases of congenital heart diseases associated
with tuberous sclerosis, emphasis is made on the potential influence of multiple rhabdomyomas developing very early during
fetal life on final cardiac structures. 相似文献

The goal of this study was to analyze diagnostic and interventional trends in tetralogy of Fallot and transposition of the
great arteries in Malta for individuals born during 1920–1994 and calculate birth prevalences. The design was population based,
in the setting of a regional hospital providing exclusive diagnostic and follow-up services for the entire population of Malta.
Data collection and analysis was retrospective and included comparison with earlier epidemiological studies. Patients included
were all Maltese live births diagnosed as having tetralogy of Fallot (TF) and transposition of the great arteries (TGA) born
by the end of 1994. There were 109 cases of TF and 30 cases of TGA (n= 30). A significant decline in age at diagnosis and age at surgery was found for both lesions (p < 0.0001), which was associated with a significant decline in perioperative mortality (p= 0.005). Underascertainment was present prior to 1980, however, more cases were diagnosed due to improvement of postmortem
services in the early 1980s followed by improvement of clinical services with eventually exclusive premortem diagnosis. The
birth prevalence of TGA was 0.31/1000 live births, well within the range described in previous studies, unlike tetralogy of
Fallot, which has been found in excess in this population in an earlier study. TF and TGA, the two lesions which comprise
the majority of cyanotic congenital heart disease presenting in infancy, have been diagnosed and have undergone intervention
at progressively earlier ages over the period under study. This decline was associated with a declining perioperative mortality. 相似文献

We report a male neonate who developed severe cyanosis and bradycardia at birth unresponsive to resuscitation. At autopsy
he was found to have premature ``closure' of the foramen ovale together with transposition of the great arteries and an intact
ventricular septum. Reviewing the literature, we found only one case report describing a similar neonate with this lethal
combination of cardiac malformations. 相似文献

Atrial Natriuretic Peptide and Atrial Pressures in Newborns with Transposition of the Great Arteries

ABSTRACT. The relation of atrial pressure to atrial plasma concentration of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) was studied in four newborns undergoing catheterization because of transposition of the great arteries. In three patients, mean left atrial pressure clearly exceeded right atrial pressure (12±7 vs. 2±3 mmHg; mean ±SD). In one patient mean atrial pressures were identical (4 mmHg). In all patients the ANP concentration in the left atrium exceeded that of the right (833±464 vs. 415±366 pg/ml; mean ±SD). There was a significant ( r =0.97; p < 0.01) correlation between pressure and ANP concentration in the left atria. In the right atria, no linear correlation existed between pressure and ANP concentration. ANP concentration in the left atrium decreased after a lowering of the left atrial pressure by atrial septostomy. In these patients, the left atrium seems to be the main source of circulating ANP. 相似文献

We describe two cases of left-side pulmonary vein obstruction observed after the arterial switch operation (Jatene) for D-transposition
of the great arteries. This appears to be related to left-sided pulmonary vein obstruction occurring coincidently with D-transposition
of the great arteries, rather than a consequence of arterial switch operation. 相似文献

Pulmonary hypertension in patients with complete transposition of the great arteries: Midterm results after surgery 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Postoperative results of surgical repair of complete transposition of the great arteries (TGA) with pulmonary hypertension
(PH) in 19 patients in whom mean pulmonary arterial pressure was >50 mmHg or the pulmonary/systemic arterial pressure ratio
was >0.8 were examined. TGA with intact ventricular septum was diagnosed in 10 patients and TGA with ventricular septal defect
in 9. At the time of corrective surgery (arterial switch 10, atrial switch 9), patients ranged in age from 7 months to 14
years (mean 2.4 years). Seventeen patients (89%) survived with New York Heart Association functional class I. Seven patients
in whom calculated pulmonary vascular resistance was 10–20 U · m2 after surgery survived with subsequent regression of PH. Residual PH was diagnosed in 36% of survivors. Two patients in whom
pulmonary vascular resistance was 26 and 36 U · m2, respectively, died after surgery. In patients with TGA, severe PH was not necessarily fatal and was potentially reversible
after successful surgery. 相似文献

There is a high prevalence of right ventricular dysfunction and reduced exercise performance in survivors of atrial switch
repair for transposition of the great arteries. However, it is not known whether the impairment in exercise performance is
progressive. We performed paired comparison of exercise performance in 28 patients who underwent two serial incremental exercise
tests at an interval of 5.0 ± 1.4 years between the two tests (age 11.5 ± 3.7 years at first test, 16.4 ± 3.6 years at second
test). There was no change in the chronotropic response between the two tests. However, there was a reduction in both the
peak VO2 (32.5 ± 8.3 vs 29.6 ± 5.7 ml/kg/min, p= 0.05) and anerobic threshold (22.1 ± 5.1 vs 18.3 ± 4.2 ml/kg/min, p < 0.01) with time. Furthermore, there was a decline in the O2 pulse (oxygen uptake/beat) at anaerobic threshold (% predicted value 95 ± 23% vs 82 ± 23%, p= .02), O2 pulse at a heart rate of 140 (% predicted value 100 ± 30% vs 85 ± 19%, p= 0.02), and the maximum O2 pulse (z value −0.27 ± 1.31 vs −1.27 ± 1.16, p < 0.01) when compared to growth-related normal values. We conclude that there is a progressive reduction in aerobic response
to exercise in patients with a systemic right ventricle. The maintenance of chronotropic response suggests that the stroke
volume response of the systemic right ventricle during exercise does not increase commensurate with somatic growth. 相似文献
