[Results of performing a Blalock-Taussig anastomosis on young infants with tetralogy of Fallot]. 1981

G E Fal'kovskiĭ, and V V Aleksi-Meskhishvili, and I I Berishvili, and L A Buzinova

The authors performed 61 operations for the creation of Blalock - Taussig's subclavian-pulmonary anastomosis in young children with tetralogy of Fallot. The risk of the operation is high in the group of patients with concomitant anomalies, and the only condition for improving the results in these patients is preoperative establishment of the exact anatomical diagnosis and individual determination of indications for one or another operation. In the group of patients with isolated tetralogy of Fallot (54 patients), the results of the operations were good, the lethality rate was 1.8%, which is evidence in favour of this type of anastomosis in children of the first months of years of life.
