Abstract

Here we report a 5-month-old female patient with Down syndrome who was successfully operated on due to congenital Morgagni hernia and ventricular septal defect concomitantly via median sternotomy. Ventricular septal defect was repaired with a polytetrafluoroethylene patch through the right atriotomy using cardiopulmonary bypass, and diaphragmatic hernia was repaired primarily with prolene sutures reinforced with teflon pledgets after excising the diaphragmatic hernia pouch simultaneously. Entire operation was completed via median sternotomy, and transabdominal approach was not required to repair the diaphragmatic hernia. Postoperative course was uneventful.

Özet

Olgu sunumumuzda, 5 aylık Down sendromlu kız hastada yapılan başarılı konjenital Morgagni hernisi ve ventrikül septal defekt onarımını sunmaktayız. Median sternotomi yaklaşımıyla aynı seansta yapılan onarımlarda kardiyopulmoner bypass eşliğinde VSD, polytetrafluoroethylene yama ile kapatıldı. Diaframdaki defekt ise primer olarak, transabdominal yaklaşıma gerek olmadan onarıldı. Postoperatif seyir sorunsuzdu.
