Division of Cardiovascular Surgery, The Hospital for Sick Children, University of Toronto and University of Toronto Faculty of Medicine, Ontario, Canada.
Background: Recent reports have cited improving results for surgical management of isolated total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage. Complex cases (with other cardiac anomalies) are less frequently reported and are associated with higher mortality.
Methods: Retrospective review identified 170 consecutive patients treated for total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage from 1982 to 1996: 44 cases were "complex" (with significant associated cardiac lesions) and 126 cases were "simple.
Relentless pulmonary vein stenosis after repair of total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage.
Ann Thorac Surg
November 1998
Division of Cardiovascular Surgery, The Hospital for Sick Children, University of Toronto and University of Toronto Faculty of Medicine, Canada.
Background: Progressive stenosis of the pulmonary veins after repair of total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage is frequently refractory to surgical therapy.
Methods: Retrospective review of 170 consecutive patients treated for total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage identified 13 patients with postrepair pulmonary vein stenosis. Preoperative and operative data were analyzed to define the patterns of progression and efficacy of surgical techniques.
