Overview
Surgical Interventions
There are a number of interventional methods to address a tricuspid atresia. These include:
- PGE1 to maintain patent ductus arteriosus
- Modified Blalock-Taussig shunt to maintain pulmonary blood flow by placing a Gortex conduit between the subclavian artery and the pulmonary artery.
- Cavopulmonary anastomosis (hemi-Fontan or bidirectional Glenn) to provide stable pulmonary flow
- Fontan procedure to redirect inferior vena cava and hepatic vein flow into the pulmonary circulation
ACC/AHA 2008 Guidelines for the Management of Adults With Congenital Heart Disease (DO NOT EDIT)[1][2]
Surgical Options for Patients With Single Ventricle (DO NOT EDIT)[1][2]
| Class I |
| "1. Surgeons with training and expertise in congenital heart disease (CHD) should perform operations for single-ventricle anatomy or physiology. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
Evaluation and Follow-Up After Fontan Procedure (DO NOT EDIT)[1][2]
| Class I |
| "1. Lifelong follow-up is recommended for patients after a Fontan type of operation; this should include a yearly evaluation by a cardiologist with expertise in the care of adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) patients. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
Surgery for Adults With Prior Fontan Repair (DO NOT EDIT)[1][2]
| Class I |
| "1. Surgeons with training and expertise in CHD should perform operations on patients with prior Fontan repair for single-ventricle physiology. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "2. Reoperation after Fontan is indicated for the following: (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "a. Unintended residual atrial septal defect (ASD) that results in right-to-left shunt with symptoms and/or cyanosis not amenable to transcatheter closure. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "b. Hemodynamically significant residual systemic artery-to-pulmonary artery shunt, residual surgical shunt, or residual ventricle-to-pulmonary artery connection not amenable to transcatheter closure. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "c. Moderate to severe systemic atrioventricular (AV) valve regurgitation. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "d. Significant (greater than 30-mm Hg peak-to-peak) subaortic obstruction. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "e. Fontan pathway obstruction. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "f. Development of venous collateral channels or pulmonary arteriovenous malformation not amenable to transcatheter management. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "g. Pulmonary venous obstruction. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "h. Rhythm abnormalities, such as complete AV block or sick sinus syndrome, that require epicardial pacemaker insertion. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| "i. Creation or closure of a fenestration not amenable to transcatheter intervention. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| Class IIa |
| "1. Reoperation for Fontan conversion (i.e., revision of an atriopulmonary connection to an intracardiac lateral tunnel, intra-atrial conduit, or extracardiac conduit) can be useful for recurrent atrial fibrillation or flutter without hemodynamically significant anatomic abnormalities. A concomitant Maze procedure should also be performed. (Level of Evidence: C)" |
| Class IIb |
| "1. Heart transplantation may be beneficial for severe SV dysfunction or protein-losing enteropathy (PLE). (Level of Evidence: C)" |
