Abstract

Background: Recent advances in understanding the anatomy of the complete atrioventricular septal defect(including right-dominant unbalanced atrioventricular septal defect) have led to alternative methods of repairing these defects. Material and Method: From May 1997 to July 1998, 8 consecutive infants(age range, 2 to 28 months, mean body weight 6.0$\pm$2.2 kg) received a single-stage intracardiac repair of the complete atrioventricular septal defect with modified surgical methods. Depending on the specific anatomic structure, the procedure was simplified in 3 patients by a direct closure of the ventricular element of the defect(Group I). Two patients judged unsuitable for direct closure due to a potential left ventricular outflow tract obstruction had received a standard two-patch repair(Group II). The remaining 3 patients with right-dominant unbalanced complete atrioventricular septal defect underwent biventricular repair; to enlarge the orifice of the left atrioventricular valve, the ventricular septal patch was placed slightly more to the right of the ventricular crest, a left sided bridging leaflet was augmented with an autologous pericardial patch, and the leaflet was repaired with a double- orifice(Group III . Result: In all 8 patients, the postoperative echocardiography demonstrated good hemodynamics. Seven patients were weaned from the ventilators after a mean 3$\pm$1 days, and 1 patient was weaned after 24 days due to a reoperation and emphysematous lung problem. A reoperation was performed in 1 patient for progressive left atrioventricular valve regurgitation due to leaflet tearing. There were no early and late mortalities. At the time of the latest review, judging from the echocardiographic criteria, left atrioventricular valve stenosis was mild in 1 patient(mean pressure gradient 6.5 mmHg, 13.5%), left atrioventricular valve regurgitation was absent or grade I in 7 patients(87.5%). The right atrioventricular valve regurgitation was absent or grade I in all 8 patients(100%). Conclusion: Infants with complete atrioventricular septal defect were treated with either a simplified approach with direct closure of the ventricular element of the defect or a modified surgical technique for a right-dominant unbalanced atrioventricular septal defect, depending on the anatomic structure. The results were no operative mortalities and low morbidity.

배경: 최근에 완전방실중격결손의 해부학적 구조에 대한 이해가 증가됨에 따라서 본원에서는 수술방법에 있 어서 여러 가지 변형을 시도하게 되었다. 대상 및 방법: 1997년 5월부터 1998년 7월까지 8명의 완전방실중 격결손 환자를 수술하였다. 남녀 각각 3명, 5명이었으며 나이는 2개월에서 28개월까지 분포하였고 평균 몸무 게는 6.0$\pm$2.2 Kg이었다. 심장의 해부학적 구조에 따라서 3명의 환아에서는 심실중격결손을 일차적으로 봉합 하여 수술을 단순화하였다(Group I). 좌심실유출로 협착의 가능성이 있는 2명의 경우에는 통상적인 방법대로 2개의 포편을 이용하였다(Group II). 그리고 불균형 완전방실중격결손의 경우에는 심실중격결손을 막는 포편 을 우심실에 치우쳐서 막고 심방중격을 새로 만들거나 좌측 방실판막의 부족한 판막부위를 자가 심낭막으로 메꾸어 주거나 좌측 방실판막이 parachute valve 인 경우에는 2개의 판막입구를 만들어 주었다(Group III). 결과: 모든 환자가 수술후 만족스러운 혈류역학을 보였으며 7명에서는 평균 3$\pm$1 일만에 인공호흡기 이탈이 가능하였으며 1명의 환자는 심장의 문제없이 폐질환으로 24일만에 인공호흡기를 이탈하였다. 수술후 합병증 으로 III군에서 판막성형을 시행한 좌측 판막이 찢어지면서 판막역류가 점진적으로 심해진 1명에서 2주만에 재수술을 하였다. 조기 및 만기사망은 없었으며 수술후 심장초음파검사에서 약간의 좌측 방실판막협착이 III 군에서 1명 있었으며(평균압력차 6.5 mmHg), 좌측 방실판막역류가 7명(87.5 %)의 환아에서 Grade I 이하였으 며, 우측 방실판막역류는 모든 환아에서 Grade I 이하였다. 결론: 완전방실중격결손의 수술시 해부학적인 구 조에 따라서 선택적으로 일부 환아에서는 심실중격결손을 일차적으로 봉합함으로써 수술을 단순화할 수 있 으며 우심실이 발달된 불균형 완전방실중격결손에서도 변형수술방법을 통하여 양심실성 교정을 하여 좋은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.
