Abstract:
Objective To investigate the feasibility and the perioperative treatments of repairing atrial septal defects and bilateral lung transplantation in treatment of ASD with Eisenmenger's syndrome.Methods On May 24th,2016,one case of atrial septal defect with Eisenmenger's syndrome underwent repair for the atrial septal defect with bilateral sequential lung transplantation aided by extracorporeal circulation ECMO in Zhongshan People's Hospital.In strict accordance to the procedure,the lung was collected and preserved with the HTK solution.The operation went smoothly,the cold ischemic time for the right lung was 120 min and that for the left lung was 260 min.Postoperatively,Tacrolimus (FK506) + Mycophenolate Mofetil (MMF) + adrenal cortical hormone Sanlian immunosuppression was used.Results At 60th h post-operation the patient was hemodynamically stable,with good oxygenation after removal of the ECMO.At 7th day post-operation the patient was extubated.At 12th-20th day post-operation bacterial culture of the sputum was found to be positive and the patient was treated with the corresponding sensitive antibiotics and recovered.Cardiac ultrasound before discharge showed that there was no residual shunt.One month after discharge the cardiopulmonary function of the patient was quite good,chest X-ray showed that the bilateral transplanted lungs were clear and the patient's quality of life was much better.Conclusion Cardiac malformation repairs with bilateral lung transplantation is a feasible treatment for patients with end-stage Eisenmenger's syndrome with bi-directional shunts.The key to success is sufficient preoperative preparation,and a smooth operation with the timely and effective treatment of postoperative complications.
