A 18-year-old female underwent surgical correction of tricuspid atresia and complete transposition of great arteries combined with atrial 8 ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis. After the transection of main pulmonary artery just above the pulmonic valve, proximal portion of main pulmonary artery was closed with running suture and distal portion of main pulmonary artery anastomosed with right atrial appendage without valve insertion. Atrial septal defect was closed with running suture. Postoperative course was uneventful and she discharged on 18th postoperative day. Her condition is in very good until present. Modified Fontan`s operation without valve placement [in the condition of low pulmonary vascular resistance and good left ventricular function] may has a good result.

선천성 심기형 환아들의 장기생존이 향상되면서 소아연령에서의 대동맥판막의 문제는 드물지 않게 경험하게 되며 또한 점차 증가하고 있다. 따라서 소아연령에서도 대동맥판막수술의 필요성이 점차 증가하고 있다. 과거 심장외측통로폰탄술식을 받은 10세 환아가 점차 심해지는 청색증과 운동시 호흡곤란으로 내원하였다. 술전 시행한 심초음파 및 심도자검사에서 간내 측부순환에 의해 간정맥에서 폐 심방으로 체정맥혈류가 유입되고 있었으며 방실판막은 중등도의, 상행대동맥의 확장 및 대동맥륜의 확장으로 인한 대동맥판막의 심한 폐쇄부전을 동반하고 있었다. 수술은 먼저 폐 심방으로 연결되는 간정맥을 결찰하고 체외순환을 가동하고 심정지를 시킨 후 상행대동맥의 축소성형 및 대동맥등 축소화를 포함한 대동맥근 재건술및 방실판막에 대한 성형술을 시행하였다. 술후 환아의 호흡곤란 및 청색증은 상당히 개선되었다.

Between October 1979 and June 1986, modified Fontan procedures have been performed on 22 patients by the Department of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, Yonsei University College of Medicine. Twelve patients had tricuspid atresia; one, congenital tricuspid stenosis; five, single ventricle; two, I-transposition of the great vessels; one, double outlet right ventricle, and one, pulmonary atresia with an intact ventricular septum. There were 9 operative deaths [mortality; 40.9%]. The causes of death were right heart failure in six patients and pulmonary venous hypertension in one who misdiagnosed preoperatively. Another two were deceased due to sepsis and cerebrovascular accident at postoperative 35 and 34 days in each. There were 7 patients below 4 years of age at the time of operation and among them 4 patients were deceased. The operative death was not related with patients` age above and below 4[p=0.211]. The relation between operative death of tricuspid anomaly and another cardiac malformations was statistically significant [p=0.048]. The operative procedures with or without valved conduit [woven dacron] was related significantly [p=0.043] in the case of the 21 of the patients, but the modified Fontan operation with a valved conduit was performed early stage in this series. Since 1982, we operated on 4 patients, doing a right atrium-right ventricle anastomosis without a conduit. All survived and remained in functional class I [NYHA]. The right atrial pressure [RAP] was elevated significantly after operation [mean 9.9$\pm$4.8 ~16.9$\pm$3.6 mmHg, p<0.001]. The relation between the postoperative RAP of the survival group [16.5$\pm$4.3 mmHg] and the group who died [17.4$\pm$2.2 mmHg] was statistically significant [p=0.047]. There was no relation between any operative death and any previous palliation. All patients were followed for 4 months to 80 months, except one who was lost to follow up at 2 months following surgery [mean 11.4 months, 238 patient. months]. All were in functional class I with 5 on medications and 7 not. One was reoperated at 70 months following the first operation, due to conduit stenosis. She was moderately impaired in activity, with hepatomegaly after the second operation.

Coronary sinus ostial atresia (CSOA) with persistent left superior vena cava (LSVC) in the absence of an unroofed coronary sinus is a benign and rare anomaly that may be taken lightly in most instances. However, if overlooked in patients undergoing univentricular heart repair such as bidirectional Glenn or Fontan-type surgery, fatal surgical outcomes may occur due to coronary venous drainage failure. We report a case of CSOA with a persistent LSVC that was managed through coronary sinus rerouting during a total cavopulmonary connection, and provide a review of the literature regarding this rare anomaly.

We reviewed our experiences on 33 patients who underwent a bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt[BCPS from February 1992 to July 1994. There were 19 male an 14 female patients, and their weight ranged from 4.4 to 13.3 Kg[mean weight 8.4 $\pm$2.9 Kg . The age ranged from 2 to 55 months [mean age 16.7 $\pm$15.5 months . Their diagnosis included single ventricle group in 16, unbalanced ventricles in 8 whose associated anomalies were double outlet right ventricle, transposition of great arteries and total anomalous pulmonary venous return, tricuspid atresia in 7, hypoplastic left heart syndrome in 1 who underwent a Norwood procedure and double outlet right ventricle with pulmonic stenosis and tricuspid stenosis in 1 who underwent biventricular repair. Among them 10 patients had received other palliative operation before [Norwood procedure 1, pulmonary artery banding 3, modified Blalock-Taussig shunt 6 . The BCPS operations were performed under the cardiopulmonary bypass. 16 patients underwent unilateral BCPS and 17 patients who had bilateral SVC underwent bilateral BCPS. Three patients whose associated anomalies were interruption of IVC underwent total cavopulmonary shunt. There were 5 operative deaths [mortality rate 15.1 % and 2 late deaths. The risk factor for the operation was high mean pulmonary artery pressure [p value<0.05 . The survivors showed good postoperative course and their postoperative oxygen saturation was increased significantly compared to that of preoperative status[p value<0.05 .Conclusively, BCPS operation is effective and safe palliative procedure for the many cyanotic complex congenital anomalies with decreased pulmonary blood flow especialy for the patients who have the high risk factors for Fontan operations.

Patients with double-inlet left ventricle usually have a small ascending aorta. In the Norwood procedure, which involves a staged operation, a neoaorta is constructed with a homograft, and the pulmonary artery plays a role in the systemic circulation. Dilatation or aneurysmal changes can occur over time due to the exposure of the neoaorta to systemic pressure, which may induce adverse effects on adj acent structures. We report a rare case of surgical repair for neoaortic root dilataiton with aortic regurgitation, compressing the left pulmohary artery, in a patient who underwent the Norwood procedure.

Seventeen patients of pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum were underwent operation during 4.8years period from Jan. 1983 to Aug. 1988 at Seoul National university Hospital. The patients were composed of 8 males and 9 females, aging 1day to 2.5 years [mean 88 days]. We classified pulmonary atresia according to right ventricular morphology; those with tripartite ventricles in 12, those with no trabecular portion to the cavity in 0, and those with inlet portion only in 5. The tripartite approach to right ventricular morphology is helpful in selecting the type of initial palliative procedures. Palliative procedures were as follows; pulmonary valvotomy in 5 with 3 early survivors, mod B-T shunt in 4 with 3 early survivors, and palliative right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction in 4 with 1 early survivor. Effective preliminary palliation of pulmonary atresia are pulmonary valvotomy or palliative right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction in those with tripartite right ventricle, and modified Blalock-Taussig shunt in those with no infundibular portion. The approach to definitive repair is based primarily on the actual size of the tricuspid annulus and the right ventricular cavity. Definitive repair was as follows: definitive right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction in 4 with all survivors and mod. Fontan operation in 2 with one survivors. Right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction can be done as complete repair for patients who had adequate tricuspid annulus and right ventricular cavitary size and mod. Fontan operation for patients who severely hypoplastic tricuspid valve annulus or small right ventricular cavity.
