Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the reconstruction of right ventricle outflow tract (RVOT) with BalMedic pulmonary valved conduit in multiple medical center.Methods Since January 2007,50 patients age (4.90 ± 7.63) years (range 6 month to 39 years),weight (16.20 ± 13.69) kg (range 4.50 to 65.0 kg),had been corrected by reconstruction of RVOT.There were 22 patients with pulmonary atresia and ventricular septal defect (PA/VSD) ; 10 patients with corrected transposition of the great arteries and pulmonary stenosis (C-TGA/PS) ; 7 patients with truncus; 4 patients with double outlet of right ventricle and pulmonary stenosis (DORV/PS) ; 3 patients with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) ; 2 patients with complete transposition of the great arteries and pulmonary stenosis (TGA/PS) ; and each 1 with aortic stenosis (AS) and pulmonary stenosis (PS).Fifty BalMedic pulmonary valved conduits were implanted between pulmonary and RVOT underwent cardiopulmonary bypass.There were different diameter of pulmonary valved conduit included 10 mm to 24 mm depend on the patients weight and pulmonary size.All patients were followed up after operation on 1 month,3-6 months and more than 12 months.Results There was no death.Three patients were lost followed up after 12 months and one late death.There were no pulmonary valve stenosis about 91.1％,moderate pulmonary regurgitation 16.0％,no RVOT obstruction 95.6％,no main pulmonary artery stenosis 80.0％,and no right and left pulmonary artery stenosis 73.0％.Conclusion These results demonstrated that the BalMedic pulmonary valved conduit is reliable and effective in surgical procedure,but the long-term results should be followed up continually.
