[Repair of congenital heart disease in an adult with septal defects and pulmonary stenosis: anesthetic management].

A 66-year-old man with complex congenital heart defects (atrial septal defects, with incomplete cor triatriatum, an aneurysmal sac in the membranous septum, ventricular communication and pulmonary valve stenosis) was scheduled for surgery for progressive dyspnea even at rest. During anesthetic induction, effort was made to avoid increased shunting. Surgery consisted of resection of the cor triatriatum membrane, closure of communications with pericardial patches, pulmonary valve replacement, replacement of the root with a porcine root, and pulmonary artery aneurysmorrhaphy.
