A boy diagnosed with persistent truncus arteriosus and severe truncal valve regurgitation had uncontrollable heart failure. Thus, truncal valve repair, ventricular septal defect closure, and right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction were performed on the second day of life. We report about a neonate with severe truncal valve regurgitation who was successfully treated with autologous pericardial truncal valve leaflet reconstruction.

Anomalous left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare congenital deformity, and its association with truncus arteriosus (TA) has been infrequently described in medical literature. We report a case of a 3-year-old child presenting with failure to thrive and recurrent respiratory infections, who was diagnosed with truncus arteriosus type 1 and an anomalous left coronary artery originating from the pulmonary artery. The embryological basis of both TA and ALCAPA involves disruptions in the normal development of the aorticopulmonary septum and coronary arteries.

Despite surgical advances, neonatal truncus arteriosus repair remains high risk and approximately 10% of patients receive perioperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). We aimed to assess factors and outcomes associated with the use of perioperative ECMO in infants undergoing truncus arteriosus repair. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent truncus arteriosus repair between 2004 and 2019, using administrative data from the Pediatric Health Information System database.

Pathogenesis and Surgical Treatment of Congenitally Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries (ccTGA): Part III.

Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (ccTGA) is an infrequent and complex congenital malformation, which accounts for approximately 0.5% of all congenital heart defects. This defect is characterized by both atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial discordance, with the right atrium connected to the morphological left ventricle (LV), ejecting blood into the pulmonary artery, while the left atrium is connected to the morphological right ventricle (RV), ejecting blood into the aorta.
