Abstract:
Objective To observe value of echocardiographic evaluation on infants with pulmonary atresia and intact ventricular septum(PA/IVS)for surgical decision and post operation right ventricle(RV)development.Methods Forty-six PA/IVS infants who underwent pulmonary valve(PV)annuloplasty(group A,n=25),PV annuloplasty and RV outflow tract reconstruction with/without additional systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunt(group B,n=15),and systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunt and atrial septal enlargement(group C,n=6)were retrospectively enrolled.Status of RV developments were compared among groups before operation as well as 1 and 6 months after operation.Results The presentation age in group B was younger than,while in group C was older than that in group A(both P<0.05).Before operation,tricuspid valve(TV)annulus diameter,TV annulus Z-score and TV/mitral valve(MV)annulus ratio in groups B and C were both smaller than those in group A(all P<0.05),whereas RV/left ventricle(LV)longitudinal diameter ratio in group B was larger and PV annulus Z-score in group C was smaller than those in group A(both P<0.05).Meanwhile,preoperative PV annulus Z-score and RV/LV longitudinal diameter ratio in group B were both larger than those in group C(both P<0.05).One month after operations,TV annulus diameter,TV annulus Z-score and TV/MV annulus ratio in group B and C,as well as PV annulus diameter,PV annulus Z-score and RV/LV longitudinal diameter ratio in group C were all smaller than those in group A(all P<0.05),while PV annulus diameter,PV annulus Z-score and RV/LV longitudinal diameter ratio in group C were all smaller than those in group B(all P<0.05).Six months after operations,no significant difference of TV annulus diameter,PV annulus diameter,PV annulus Z-score,TV/MV annulus ratio nor RV/LV longitudinal diameter ratio was found between group A and B(all P>0.05),but the above indexes in group C were all lower than those in group A and B(all P<0.05).Besides,no significant difference of TV annulus Z-score was found between group A and B(P>0.05),which were lower in group C than in group A(P<0.05).Conclusion Echocardiographic evaluation on PA/IVS infants was helpful to establishment of forward blood flow from RV to pulmonary arteries in time,hence promoting RV development.
