Abstract

Objectives: We evaluated the causes of reoperations, surgical techniques, and results of patients who had undergone a previous repair by sternotomy for congenital heart defects.Study design: The study included 108 patients (59 males, 49 females; mean age 10.2±9.7 years; range 9 days to 58 years) who required a reoperation following a repair by sternotomy. A right thoracotomy was performed in three patients, Clamshell incision in three patients, and resternotomy in 102 patients. Thirty-three patients underwent total repair following a palliative procedure, while six patients underwent a subsequent palliative procedure. Other reoperations were performed for the following: right ventricle outflow tract (n=21), atrioventricular valve (n=16), left ventricle outflow tract (n=13), Fontan revisions (n=7), arterial switch/double switch reoperations (n=7), pulmonary venous return restenosis (n=2), residual/recurrent atrial/ventricular septal defect (n=2), tricuspid regurgitation and arrhythmia after the Senning operation (n=1).Results: Hospital mortality occurred in nine patients (8.3%). Thirteen patients (13.1%) experienced a prolonged intensive care unit stay (≥1 week). During sternal reentry major hemorrhage occurred in two patients, one of whom died. Postoperative complications included re-exploration for bleeding (n=2), permanent pacemaker implantation (n=2), tracheostomy (n=6), pleural effusion (n=7), pneumothorax (n=1), chylothorax (n=1), right diaphragmatic paralysis (n=3), and transient cerebrovascular event (n=1).Conclusion: The majority of reoperations after repair of congenital heart defects are due to staged repairs or to inevitably ensuing problems. Proper indications and timing are essential depending on the underlying pathology and surgical technique.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, doğuştan kalp hastalığı nedeniyle daha önce sternotomi ile tamir uygulandıktan sonra tekrar ameliyat edilen hastalarda yeniden ameliyat nedenleri, uygulanan cerrahi teknik ve sonuçları değerlendirildi.Çalışma planı: Çalışmaya sternotomi ile tamirden sonra yeniden ameliyat edilen 108 hasta (59 erkek, 49 kadın; ort. yaş 10.2±9.7; dağılım 9 gün-58 yıl) alındı. Üç hastada sağ torakotomi, üç hastada Clamshell insizyonu tercih edilirken, 102 hastada yeniden sternotomi yapıldı. Otuz üç hastada daha önceki palyatif bir girişimi takiben tam düzeltme, altı hastada ise tekrar palyatif bir girişim uygulandı. Diğer ameliyatlar veya nedenleri şunlardı: Sağ ventrikül çıkış yolu ameliyatı (n=21), atriyoventriküler kapak ameliyatı (n=16), sol ventrikül çıkış yolu ameliyatı (n=13), Fontan revizyonları (n=7), arteryel switch/double switch sonrası ameliyatlar (n=7), pulmoner venöz dönüş restenozu (n=2), rezidüel veya tekrarlayan atriyal/ventriküler septal defekt (n=2), Senning sonrası triküspid yetersizliği, aritmi (n=1).Bulgular: Erken dönemde dokuz hasta (%8.3) kaybedildi. On üç hastada (%13.1) yoğun bakımda kalış süresi bir hafta veya üzerinde idi. Birisi kaybedilen hasta olmak üzere, iki hastada sternum açılırken ciddi kanama gelişti. Ameliyat sonrasında şu komplikasyonlar görüldü: Kanama revizyonu (n=2), kalıcı pacemaker implantasyonu (n=3), trakeostomi (n=6), plevral efüzyon (n=7), pnömotoraks (n=1), şilotoraks (n=1), sağ diyafragma paralizisi (n=3), geçici serebrovasküler olay (n=1).Sonuç: Doğuştan kalp anomalilerinin tedavisinde yeniden ameliyat ihtiyacı daha çok aşamalı tamir gereksinimi veya kaçınılmaz olarak ortaya çıkan sorunlardan kaynaklanmaktadır. Endikasyonların ve zamanlamanın patolojiye ve uygulanacak işleme göre doğru belirlenmesi gerekir.
