Congenital Defect

Harry Hoerr; Congenital defects and corrective surgery.

QuestionAnswer
What are obstructive lesions? -Coarctation of aorta. -Aortic/pulmonary stenosis
What are non-cyanotic defects? (increased pulmonary blood flow) -Septal Defects. -PDA. -Endocardial defects.
What are cyantotic defects? (decreased pulmonary blood flow) -Hypoplastic left heart syndrome. -ToF. -Truncus arteriosus. -Transposition of great arteries. -Single ventricle. -Double outlet right ventricle. -Pulmonary atresia. -Anomalous pulmonary venous return.
What form of ASD is most common? Ostium secundum is most common - 70%
Where does a ostium secundum occur? Occurs in the center of the atrial septum.
Where does a ostium primum occur? It occurs in the lower portion of the atrial septum. Generally smaller than secundum ASD and can often be accompanied by a cleft mitral valve.
Where does a sinus venosus occur? It occurs in the upper partion of the atrial septum. This defect is almost always associated with anomalous pulmonary venous return.
Pulmonary vascular disease usually only occurs if a L-to-R shunt is.... >1.5:1
What is endocardial cushion defect? Consists of defects in the lower ATRIAL and upper VENTRICLE septa, and deficiencies in the MITRAL/TRICUSPID valves.
After when is a PDA classified as a PDA? If it is still patent after 3 months of life.
What are tree treatment options for PDA? -Catheterization. -Medical Management (indomethacin). -Surgical closure (CPB not needed and done via left thoracotomy).
What are some signs of cyanotic lesions? -Acid/Base imbalance. -Impaired Growth. -Syncope. -Squatting. -Clubbing of digits. -Cerebral Abscess
What is the Potts shunt? Side to side connection of descending aorta to left PA
What is the Cooley shunt? Intrapericardial connection of ascending aorta to right PA.
What is the Waterson shunt? Similar to Cooley shunt but not intrapericardial
What is the Central shunt? A teflon graft between the ascending aorta and main PA
What are the four characteristics of Tetralogy of Fallot? TOF: -Pulmonary Stenosis. -VSD. -RV hypertrophy. -Overriding aorta.
Is TOF a L-to-R o a R-to-L shunt? TOF is usually characterized by a RIGHT-to-LEFT shunt due to Pulmonary Hypertension and RV Hypertrophy
What is total anomalous pulmonary venous return? When all 4 pulmonary veins drain into the right side of the heart. Having an ASD helps
What is the Supracardiac type of total anomalous pulmonary venous return? (45% - 55%)Pulmonary Veins drain into the INNOMINATE VEIN or SVC
What is the Cardiac type of total anomalous pulmonary venous return? (15-20%) pulmonary veins connect to the CORONARY SINUS
What is the Infracardiac type of total anomalous pulmonary venous return? (15-20%) a vertical vein lying posterior to the pericardium cannects the pulmonary veins to the portal vein below the diaphragm
