ABSTRACT

Surgical correction of anomalous pulmonary venous connection from the left lung to the innominate vein (through a vertical vein) without cardiopulmonary bypass, was performed in two patients, with excellent evolution. After median sternotomy, the ascending vertical vein was cut obliquely close to the vein, and connected to the left atrial appendage. In the postoperative period, the patients were in NYHA class I and the hemodynamic study showed normal venous drainage from the left lung to the left atrium

ABSTRACT

Uma nova técnica de encurramento de cordas tendíneas alongadas é proposta. Através de pequena incisäo longitudinal na cúspide anterior próximo ao bordo livre ae à inserçäo da corda alongada, esta é puxada para cima com um tracionador de nervos. Desta forma a cúspide anterior prolapsada desce em direçäo ao mesmo nível da cúspide posterior. Em seguida sutura-se o orifício fixando a porçäo alongada da corda sobre a face atrial da cúspideanterior. Esta técnica foi aplicada em uma paciente com insuficiência mitral importante corrigindo-a satisfatoriamente. Devido à presença de diâmetro ântero-posterior aumentado do anel mitral foi implantado anel Gregori IMC para sua correçäo. A excelente evoluçäo clínica, assim como os bons resultados avaliados pelo estudo hemodinâmico e ecodopplercardiografia, demonstram tratar-se de procedimento que reproduz as condiçöes anatômicas próprias da valva mitral, indicado na insuficiência mitral por alongamento de cordas da cúspide anterior.


A new technique is proposed for mitral incompetence due to elongated chordae tendineae of the anterior leaflet. It consists in shortening the chordae tendineae of the leaflet level. First, we make a longitudinal orifice in the anterior leaflet just near its free edge and the elongated chordae tendineae. Through the orifice and with the help of a micro nerve hook we pull the elongated chordae the necessary to keep the anterior leaflet in the same level of the posterior leaflet. The orifice is then closed with a polipropilene 5-0 suture. The mitral annuloplasty was performed with a Gregori IMC prosthetic ring. The excellent clinical and laboratorial data suggest that mitral insufficiency due to elongated chordae tendineae can be corrected by this technique.
