Abstract
BACKGROUND This article aims to demonstrate the morphology of 261 total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) cases operated at Children's Hospital 1 with in-hospital mortality of 19.5% (51/261). METHODS All the surgical protocols of TAPVC cases repaired between 2008 and June 2023 were reviewed. The descriptions of TAPVC were based on operative findings by surgeons. RESULTS A total of 261 TAPVC patients were operated, including 124 (47.5%) supra, 83 (31.8%) intra, 41 (15.7%) infra, and 13 (5%) mixed cases. The in-hospital mortality was 19.5% (51/261). Fifteen cases are associated with other anomalies of the heart. Four subtypes of 124 supra TAPVC were found, with 42 (33.9%) obstructed cases. The standard was all pulmonary veins (PVs) forming a common vein (CV) and draining into the innominate veins, then going to the superior vena cava (SVC) (100/124, 80.6%). Eleven supra TAPVC cases were vascular vise type. Ten cases had the vertical vein running from the right of the CV and draining directly into the SVC. Of 83 intracardiac TAPVCs with 9 (10.8%) obstructed cases, the most common was all PVs draining directly into the coronary sinus (60/83, 72.3%). The second was all PVs draining directly into the right atrium (RA) via separated ostia or forming a CV before entering the RA (17/83, 20.5%). Also, there were three cases with rare variants and 100% obstruction when the diagnosis was explored. The in-hospital mortality of intracardiac type was 13.3% (11/83) 41 infra TAPVC with obstructed rate of 61% (25/41) and in-hospital mortality of 29.3% (12/41). Thirteen mixed TAPVCs were repaired, with most cases having three PVs forming a CV. CONCLUSION This article provides valuable information about the morphology of TAPVC types in Asian patients.

Pulmonary Venous Gradients in Healthy Controls and Following the Repair of Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return. Pediatr Cardiol 2023; 44:325-332. [PMID: 35986764 DOI: 10.1007/s00246-022-02986-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2022] [Accepted: 08/08/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
The percent of children who can achieve a normal and physiologic pulmonary venous gradient and flow following the repair of Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return (TAPVR) is not known. Pulmonary venous confluence gradients from infants with supra-, infra-, or mixed TAPVR, repaired using a direct anastomotic connection were measured. Data from age, weight, and gender-matched controls established the normal pulmonary venous gradient range (0.30-0.94 mmHg). TAPVR subjects were divided into three groups: (I) pulmonary venous gradient < 2 × normal with multiphasic flow (II) pulmonary venous gradient > 2 × normal with multiphasic flow, and (III) pulmonary venous gradient > 2 × normal with monophasic flow. From 63 children following TAPVR repair and 63 matched controls, pulmonary venous gradients were significantly lower [0.5 mmHg (IQR:0.4, 0.6) vs 1.6 mmHg (IQR:1.0, 2.4); p < 0.001], and multiphasic flow more frequent (100 vs. 84.1%; p = 0.001) within the control group. There were 38 children (60.3%) in group I, 15 (23.8%) in group II, and 10 (15.8%) in group III. Children in Group I were significantly older at the time of repair, had shorter cardiopulmonary bypass times, and did not utilize deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA). Multivariate analysis confirmed that avoiding DHCA [Odds Ratio 0.931 (0.913,0.994; p = 0.002)] and shorter cardiopulmonary bypass times [Odds Ratio 0.962 (0.861,0.968; p = 0.02)] during repair were associated with the lowest pulmonary venous gradients and multiphasic flow. Following TAPVR repair with a direct anastomosis, the majority of children can achieve a gradient two times normal or less with multiphasic pulmonary venous flow.

Abstract
Pediatric intraluminal pulmonary vein stenosis has evolved into a chronic illness, with improving survival. Although significant knowledge gaps remain, medical providers have found success in the management of patients with pulmonary vein stenosis using a comprehensive multimodality treatment strategy. This review discusses the core principles employed by 4 centers dedicated to improving pulmonary vein stenosis outcomes, including how to make the diagnosis, educating the family, treatment strategy, the importance of surveillance, and the management of symptoms and comorbidities.

Sutureless Closure Versus Conventional Technique in the Primary Surgery of Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. Pediatr Cardiol 2022; 43:943-951. [PMID: 35426500 DOI: 10.1007/s00246-022-02904-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2022] [Accepted: 03/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
Sutureless closure has been used for primary repair of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) for over 20 years but its superiority over conventional technique is still uncertain. This systematic review was conducted to compare the effectiveness of sutureless closure and conventional surgery as the primary repair for TAPVC. Systematic search was performed in June 2021 on 12 databases. All studies comparing sutureless and conventional surgery for TAPVC were included. The primary endpoints were early mortality, overall mortality, postoperative pulmonary venous stenosis (PVS), and reoperation. Meta-analysis of two-arm studies was performed with several sensitivity and subgroup analyses. Six retrospective studies with 767 patients were included in meta-analyses. Sutureless closure significantly reduced the risk of early mortality, overall mortality, postoperative PVS, and reoperation by 53%, 45%, 77%, and 67% compared to conventional technique, respectively. No heterogeneity was found and presence of publication bias was non-significant. The results were consistent in all sensitivity analyses. Subgroup analyses revealed that sutureless closure was superior to conventional technique in patients with and without preoperative pulmonary venous obstruction, and neonates and non-neonates. Sutureless closure is better than conventional closure as the primary surgery for TAPVC patients. We advocate using sutureless closure for patients with TAPVC. Future large-scale observational studies or clinical trials are required to confirm our findings.

Abstract
Background An updated meta-analysis was performed to explore the clinical outcomes following the sutureless repair in patients with total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) and compare outcomes between the sutureless technique and conventional surgery. Methods A systematic search of PubMed, Ovid-Embase, and Cochrane Library (CENTRAL) for relevant published studies that reported the clinical outcomes of the sutureless technique in children with TAPVC was performed in February 2022. The publication language was restricted to English. Results Eleven studies were included involving 771 patients in total. Following the sutureless technique, the incidences of postoperative pulmonary venous obstruction (PVO) and reoperations due to PVO were 3.3% [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.3–5.3%] and 1.8% (95% CI, 0.3–3.3%), respectively. The early and late mortality rates were 3.2% (95% CI, 1.0–5.3%) and 2.5% (95% CI, 0.7–4.3%), respectively. Compared with conventional surgery, the sutureless technique significantly reduced the incidences of postoperative PVO [odds ratio (OR), 0.16; 95% CI, 0.08–0.33; P < 0.00001], reoperations due to PVO (OR, 0.25; 95% CI, 0.10–0.63; P = 0.003), and early mortality (OR, 0.40; 95% CI, 0.21–0.79; P = 0.008). However, no significant difference was found between conventional surgery and the sutureless technique concerning late mortality (OR, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.13–3.00; P = 0.58). Conclusion The sutureless technique is superior to conventional surgery for the primary repair of TAPVC concerning postoperative PVO, reoperations due to PVO, and early mortality. However, the level of evidence is of low quality. Prospective cohort studies or randomized control trials (RCTs) should be performed to evaluate the effectiveness of sutureless techniques for primary TAPVC repair.
