Introduction to adult congenital heart disease part 1

1. Introduction to adult congenital heart diseasepart 1 Presented by Dr: Ibrahim Emam Fellow Of Egyptian Board Of Cardiac Surgery

2. Introduction The successful management and correction of congenital heart disease( CHD) has resulted in an increase number of adult with CHD 85% of children born with CHD now survive to adulthood 40% of the operations was the first time complete and 52% were reoperation (1)

3. Classification • First group: Include who undergone complete repair • Second group: Include who undergone palliative procedure • Third group: Include those without previous surgery (2)

5. Chronic cyanosis 1- Erythrocytosis • The red cell mass may be up to 3 times normal→ hyperviscosity Symptoms of hyperviscosity: - Headache - Faintness - Visual disturbance • Myalgia - Muscle weakness • Paresthesias - Impaired mentation • If the patients had symptoms → phlebotomy with fluid replacement should be performed to reduce red cell mass→ ↑blood flow (3)

6. Chronic cyanosis …..continue 2- Haemostatic dysfunction • Thrombosis due to hyperviscosity • Bleeding due to platelet dysfunction, thrombocytopenia, hypofibrinogenemia, accelerated fibrinolysis and clotting factor deficiencies • In patients with HB > 20 g/dl and complication of bleeding, phlebotomy of 1to2 units my improve hemostasis (4)

7. Chronic cyanosis ……. continue 3- Collateral arteries Types: communicating and uncommunicaing restrictive and unrestrictive Complication: injury during sternotomy, washingout of cardioplegia, volume overload Management: - unifocalization for restrictive - catheter coil occlusion or surgical ligation for unrestrictive (5)

9. Chronic cyanosis …….continue 4- Renal dysfunction • Due to ↓GFR and proteinuria with segmental sclerosis and basement membrane thickening • Patients requiring cardiac cath. Should be well hydrated before and after, minimal amount of contrast and monitoring of urine output (6)

10. stroke • Children < 4 years old with iron deficiency are at increase risk of intracranial venous and sinus thrombosis • Stroke caused by cerebral arterial thrombosis due to hyperviscosity was not established (7)

11. Resternotomy • Can be hazardous As♥dilated RA, RV, or RV to pulmonary artery conduit adherent to posterior sternum ♥ If RA OR RV entered in the presence of intra-cardiac defect→ catastrophic air embolism ♥ Chronic hepatic congestion and coagulopathy will exacerbates the bleeding (8)

12. Resternotomy …..Continue • So This patients need ♥ Review operative report ♥ PA and lateral CXR ♥ C T scan ♥ Prepare groin ♥ Cannulation of femoral vessel ♥ Antifibrinolytic agents ♥ Oscillating saw ♥ Autologous blood donation ♥ Cell – saving devices ♥ External defibrillator ♥ Blood be available in OR ♥ Deep hypothermia, fiberlate the heart, and keep the heart full if re-entry is suspected (8)

13. hemoptysis • Causes ♥Pulmonary infarction due to embolism ♥ Rupture enlarged friable bronchial artery • Management ♥Prompt bronchoscope to clear airway and identify the bleeder ♥ If the bleeding persists →angio →embolization ♥ If persists → emergent pulmonary resection (5)

14. Iron deficiency • From red blood cells lyses due to turbulence of the flow through stenotic valve or conduits and regurgitate valve • Result in microcytic hypochromic erythrocyte →↓red blood cells compliance → ↑viscosity • Need iron replacement with close monitoring to avoid excessive erythrocyte production and avoid dehydration (9)

15. Pressure and/or volume overload • Volume overload from intra and extra- cardiac shunting → heart failure and arrhythmia • Pressure overload from stenotic lesions→ hypertrophy → ↓compliance and arrhythmia

16. Surgical consideration in patients with previous operation

17. Blalock - Taussing shunt Is a surgical procedure to give palliation to cyanotic heart defects which are common causes of blue baby syndrome. In modern surgery, this procedure is temporarily used to direct blood flow to the lungs and relieve cyanosis while the infant is waiting for corrective or palliative surgery( PA, F4, and tricuspid atresia). Classic: S C artery ibsialateral to the aortic arch to branch PA end to site Modified:Interposition graft( PTFE) between SC or innominate artery and the pulmonary artery

21. Blalock - Taussing shunt …..continue ABP monitoring in the opposite hand Avoid ↓BP during induction of anesthesia to avoid pulmonary hypoperfusion Avoid injury of the shunt during dissection At the start of CPB the shunt should be ligated and divided Aspirin should be discontinue 5 days before reoperation Arterioplasty for distorted pulmonary artery

22. Glenn shunt • The Glenn procedure is the surgery used to prepare the heart for a Fontan procedure for patients with a single ventricle. • Classic: is an end to end anatomies between right PA and SVC • Modified bidirectional: is an end to side anatomies of SVC and superior margin of right PA • The classic Glenn is take down, and PA continuity is reestablished (10)

23. Classic Glenn

25. Pulmonary artery band( PAB) • ↓excessive pulmonary blood flow , thereby reducing the incidence of PH • At the time of re-operation repair of stenosis must be addressed by pericardium or prosthetic patch • If the band migrate → bilateral pulmonary artery stenosis or distortion, my necessitated homograft, prosthetic material or pericardium (11)

26. Pulmonary artery band

27. Indication of PAB • Multiple VSD • Tricuspid atresia type IIC • TGA presented late, atrial switch for conversion to arterial switch (11)

28. Anesthesia consideration • Prevent anxiety, tachycardia, and increased myocardial demands • Avoid myocardial depression, vasodilatation, hypotension, large tidal volumes and height PEEP especially in patients depend upon preload like Fontan patients • Hypoxemia and acidosis are to be avoided to prevent PVC • Minimal O2, hypercapnia and mild acidosis to prevent excessive pulmonary blood flow (12)
