A four year old girl was diagnosed as a case of mid muscular Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) since early infancy. She had history of failure to thrive (FTT) and recurrent chest infection or pneumonia. As her pulmonary artery pressure was almost normal she was planned for device closure on elective basis once device and technology would be available in cardiac centre of combined Military Hospital (CMH) Dhaka. Finally it was done on 21st August 2005 and patient was discharged after 72 hours observation period. Echocardiography on next morning showed complete occlusion of defect with no residual shunt.

Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection

Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is a rare congenital heart disease in which there is developmental absence of connection of all four pulmonary veins with the left atrium. To report a rare case and share our experience in surgery and post-operative management for supracardiac TAPVC. Patient with supracardiac TAPVC with atrial septal defect (ASD) secundum variety with rudimentary patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) underwent rechanneling of pulmonary veins to left atrium (LA) with gluteryldehye treated autologous pericardial patch closure of ASD with ligation of ascending vertical vein and ligation of rudimentary PDA.Post operatively there were no events of pulmonary hypertensive crisis, low cardiac output syndrome, right heart failure or conduction defect were observed and echocardiogram showed adequate pulmonary venous drainage with no residual shunt across the interatrial septum. Marked development in surgical results of TAPVC has been observed in recent years with declining mortality rate from 65% in early sixties to 5% in current surgical scenerio.

Background: Although various synthetic materials and pericardium have been used for atrial septal defect (ASD) closure, investigators are continuing to search for an ideal material for this procedure. We report and evaluate a case in which autologous right atrial wall tissue was used for ASD closure. Case: In this case, we closed a secundum ASD of a 22-year-old woman who also had right atrial enlargement due to the defect. After establishing standard bicaval cannulation and total cardiopulmonary bypass, we opened the right atrium with an oblique incision in a superior position to a standard incision. After examining the secundum ASD, we created a flap on the inferior rim of the atrial wall. A stay suture was stitched between the tip of the flap and the superior rim of the defect, and suturing was continued in a clockwise direction thereafter. Considering the size and shape of the defect, we incised the inferior attachment of the flap, and suturing was completed. Remnants of the flap on the inferior rim were resected, and the right atrium was closed in a similar fashion. Results: During an echocardiographic examination, neither a residual shunt nor perigraft thrombosis was seen on the interatrial septum. The patient was discharged with complete recovery. Conclusion: Autologous right atrial patch is an ideal material for ASD closure, especially in patients having a large right atrium. A complete coaptation was achieved because of the muscular nature of the right atrial tissue and its thickness, which is a closer match to the atrial septum than other materials.

Abstract Background Adenosine induced cardiac standstill has been used intraoperatively for both aneurysm and arteriovenous malformation (AVM) surgery and embolization. We sought to report the results of adenosine induced cardiac standstill as an adjunct to endovascular embolization of brain AVMs. Material and Methods We retrospectively identified patients in our prospectively maintained database to identify all patients since January 2007 in whom adenosine was used to induce cardiac standstill during the embolization of a brain AVM. We recorded demographic data, clinical presentation, Spetzler Martin grade, rupture status, therapeutic intervention and number of embolization sessions, angiographic and clinical results, clinical and radiological outcomes and follow-up information. Results We identified 47 patients (22 female, 47%) with average age 42 ± 17 years (range 6–77 years) who had undergone AVM embolization procedures using adjunctive circulatory standstill with adenosine. In total there were 4 Spetzler Martin grade 1 (9%), 9 grade 2 (18%), 15 grade 3 (32%), 8 grade 4 (18%), and 11 grade 5 (23%) lesions. Of the AVMs six were ruptured or had previously ruptured. The average number of embolization procedures per patient was 5.7 ± 7.6 (range 1–37) with an average of 2.6 ± 2.2 (range 1–14) embolization procedures using adenosine. Overall morbidity was 17% (n = 8/47) and mortality 2.1% (n = 1/47), with permanent morbidity seen in 10.6% (n = 5/47) postembolization. Angiographic follow-up was available for 32 patients with no residual shunt seen in 26 (81%) and residual shunts seen in 6 patients (19%). The angiographic follow-up is still pending in 14 patients. At last follow-up 93.5% of patients were mRS ≤2 (n = 43/46). Conclusion Adenosine induced cardiac standstill represents a viable treatment strategy in high flow AVMs or AV shunts that carries a low risk of mortality and permanent neurological deficits.
