Özet
Background: This retrospective study evaluated factors associated with mortality and morbidity in patients having functionally biventricular heart (FBH) and functionally univentricular heart (FUH) undergoing total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) repair. Methods: We reviewed medical records retrospectively and identified 72 patients undergoing TAPVC repair between July 2002 and December 2010; and 62 patients had FBH and 10 patients had FUH. The median age and weight at repair was 9.1 months (range, 8 days-16 years) and 6.7 kg (range, 2.5-57 kg). The TAPVC anatomy was supracardiac in 41 (56.9%), cardiac in 18 (25%), infracardiac in eight (11.1%), and mixed in five patients (6.9%). Results: There were seven early deaths (2 FBH [25%] and 5 FUH [62.5%]) and one late death (FUH). Presence of FUH (p < 0.01), heterotaxy syndrome (p = 0.03), young age (p < 0.01), low weight (p < 0.01) and long CPB time (p = 0.04) at the time of surgery were statistically significant risk factors for mortality. Morbidity was related to long duration of postoperative mechanical ventilation, intensive care unit and hospital stay. Presence of FUH was the only significant risk factor for morbidity (p < 0.01). After a mean follow-up of 52.1 months (range, 3-74 months), 59 (92%) of 64 survivors were asymptomatic without any medication, and five have mild symptoms with regular physical activity. Conclusion: Operative results of TAPVC have dramatically improved in recent years. However, patients having FUH (especially with concomitant palliative surgery), heterotaxy syndrome, low weight, early age, and long CPB time still have an increased operative mortality. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
