Overview
- Done for patients with TGA, VSD, and pulmonary outflow tract obstruction.
- It depends on appropriate VSD anatomy (large and subaortic) because then it will be used as part of the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT), involving placement of a baffle within the RV to direct blood flow from the VSD to the aorta. A conduit is inserted between the RV and the pulmonary artery, which is stitched.
- Advantage- Left Ventricle becomes the systemic ventricle
- Disadvantage- The conduit will likely need to be replaced several times during the patient's life.
- The appropriate age for this operation is still debated, due to the higher risk with the early repair.
- The younger the patient the smaller the conduit, needing earlier reoperation.
(ACC/AHA) Recommendation for Diagnostic Catheterization for Adults With Repaired Dextro-Transposition of the Great Arteries[1](DONOT EDIT)
| “ |
For adults with d-TGA, ventricular septal defect (VSD), and pulmonary stenosis (PS), after Rastelli-type repair, diagnostic catheterization can be beneficial to assist in the following: 1. Coronary artery delineation before any intervention for right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) obstruction. (Level of Evidence: C) 2. Assessment of residual VSD. (Level of Evidence: C) 3. Assessment of PAH, with potential for vasodilator testing. (Level of Evidence: C) 4. Assessment of subaortic obstruction across the left ventricle-to-aorta tunnel. (Level of Evidence: C) |
