Corrected transposition of the great vessels associated with an obscured ventricular septal defect due to an abnormal systemic atrioventricular valve (report of a case and surgical considerations). 1980

J Y Jung, and C H Almond, and Z Labibidi

A case of corrected transposition associated with atrial septal defect, obscured ventricular septal defect, mild pulmonary valvar stenosis, severe systemic atrioventricular valve regurgitation and complete heart block is described. Closure of an atrial septal defect and a ventricular septal defect was carried out through a left atriotomy. Systemic atrioventricular valve replacement with a 27 mm. Hancock porcine valve was performed through the same approach. A permanent Demand rechargeable pulse generator unit with myocardial unipolar electrode lead was implanted. In the presence of complete heart block, a beating heart was not mandatory while repairing the ventricular septal defect. This enabled us to employ the hypothermic cardioplegic technique which greatly facilitated the surgical repair. Despite the multiplicity and magnitude of the anomalies, gratifying results were obtained. The surgical approach and technical precautions are discussed.

D011666 Pulmonary Valve Stenosis The pathologic narrowing of the orifice of the PULMONARY VALVE. This lesion restricts blood outflow from the RIGHT VENTRICLE to the PULMONARY ARTERY. When the trileaflet valve is fused into an imperforate membrane, the blockage is complete.

D004562 Electrocardiography Recording of the moment-to-moment electromotive forces of the HEART as projected onto various sites on the body's surface, delineated as a scalar function of time. The recording is monitored by a tracing on slow moving chart paper or by observing it on a cardioscope, which is a CATHODE RAY TUBE DISPLAY. 12-Lead ECG,12-Lead EKG,12-Lead Electrocardiography,Cardiography,ECG,EKG,Electrocardiogram,Electrocardiograph,12 Lead ECG,12 Lead EKG,12 Lead Electrocardiography,12-Lead ECGs,12-Lead EKGs,12-Lead Electrocardiographies,Cardiographies,ECG, 12-Lead,EKG, 12-Lead,Electrocardiograms,Electrocardiographies, 12-Lead,Electrocardiographs,Electrocardiography, 12-Lead
D006324 Heart Arrest, Induced A procedure to stop the contraction of MYOCARDIUM during HEART SURGERY. It is usually achieved with the use of chemicals (CARDIOPLEGIC SOLUTIONS) or cold temperature (such as chilled perfusate).

D006327 Heart Block Impaired conduction of cardiac impulse that can occur anywhere along the conduction pathway, such as between the SINOATRIAL NODE and the right atrium (SA block) or between atria and ventricles (AV block). Heart blocks can be classified by the duration, frequency, or completeness of conduction block. Reversibility depends on the degree of structural or functional defects.

D006344 Heart Septal Defects, Atrial Developmental abnormalities in any portion of the ATRIAL SEPTUM resulting in abnormal communications between the two upper chambers of the heart. Classification of atrial septal defects is based on location of the communication and types of incomplete fusion of atrial septa with the ENDOCARDIAL CUSHIONS in the fetal heart. They include ostium primum, ostium secundum, sinus venosus, and coronary sinus defects.

D006345 Heart Septal Defects, Ventricular Developmental abnormalities in any portion of the VENTRICULAR SEPTUM resulting in abnormal communications between the two lower chambers of the heart. Classification of ventricular septal defects is based on location of the communication, such as perimembranous, inlet, outlet (infundibular), central muscular, marginal muscular, or apical muscular defect.
