Hybrid Palliation for Functionally Single Ventricle with Systemic Outflow Obstruction / 대한흉부외과학회지

ABSTRACT

Hybrid procedure was performed for a thirteen-day-old girl with a functionally single ventricle, who weighed 2.2 kg and had been prematurely born at 32(+5) weeks of gestation. She underwent bilateral pulmonary artery banding using 3.5 mm Gore-Tex graft, ductal stenting using balloon expandable stent, and reverse Blalock-Taussig shunt with 3.5 mm Gore-Tex vascular graft. After discharge, she was followed up for 4 months, and underwent 2nd stage operation (extensive arch reconstruction with Damus-Kaye-Stansel anastomosis, atrial septectomy, bilateral pulmonary artery angioplasty, bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt). She has been followed up for 4 months after the 2nd operation with an excellent clinical condition.
