Abstract:
Objective To discuss the surgical treatment of anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery(ALCAPA) and the risk factors of postoperative recovery in infants and children.Methods A retrospective review of all patients who underwent surgical treatment of ALCAPA in Shanghai Children Medical Center(2003.1-2018.1) was conducted.Patients were divided into early surgery group (2003.1-2012.12) and late surgery group (2013.1-2018.1) according to the operation time,a preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) ＜0.35 was defined as severe group and LVEF≥0.35 as the control group in both surgery group.Meantime,and the clinical data among the groups were analyzed and compared.Results 102 patients were included in our study.According to the operation time and preoperative LVEF grouping:10 cases in the early severe group,early death in 4 cases(40％);28 cases in the early control group,and 3 cases died(10.7％)in hospital.Preoperative LVEF(0.29 ± 0.06 vs.0.53 ± 0.12),surgical age [(8.0 ± 7.9) months vs.(23.3 ± 27.7)months],and cardiopulmonary bypass time [(131.1 ± 39.6) min vs.(103.8 ± 29.8) min] were statistically different between the early two groups.The results of the late surgery had been improved:24 cases in the late severe group,4 cases died in hospital(16.7％);40 cases in the late control group,and early death in 2 cases (5％).In the late surgery groups,there was a statistically significant difference in preoperative LVEF(0.28 ±0.05 vs.0.59 ±0.12),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVDD) Z-score(3.09 ±1.16 vs.2.11 ±0.95),and surgical age [(5.3 ±3.0) months vs.(24.8 ±30.5)months],clamping time [(67.1 ± 15.5) min vs.(82.7 ± 28.4) min].In the severe group,there was no significant difference in preoperative clinical data between early and late patients,and the early mortality decreased from 40％ in the early period to 16.7％ in the late period.In this study,13 cases(38.2％) of children with severe ALCAPA underwent mechanical circulation support(MCS).One patient died during MCS support and 2 died after weaning.Conclusion The early mortality severe ALCAPA remains high,which may be related to severe cardiac ischemia,left ventricular enlargement and age at surgical time.The modify of surgery technology and the use of MCS in the early clinical stage can improve the early survival rate.
