Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the efficacy of multistage surgery in patients with functional single ventricle (FSV) and risk factors of postoperative death.
Methods:The clinical data of all consecutive patients with FSV undergoing multistage single ventricle palliation surgery in Guangzhou women and children's medical center from January 2008 to December 2017 were retrospectively reviewed. The study included 289 patients. The age was 10.0 (6.0, 35.4) months,and there were 198 male and 91 female patients. The patients were followed up at outpatient clinic. Survival rates were calculated with Kaplan-Meier. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was made to determine the risk factors of postoperative death.
Results:Seventy-nine patients required the first stage palliation surgery, 232 patients received the Glenn shunt surgery, and 162 patients completed the Fontan procedure. Overall, postoperative death occurred in 39 patients including 21 after the first stage palliation surgery (early stage 13 cases, late stage 8 cases) , 10 after the Glenn shunt surgery (early stage 5 cases, late stage 5 cases) , and 8 following the Fontan procedure (early stage 6 cases, late stage 2 cases) . Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that survival rate of the entire cohort was 90.2% (95%CI 86.7%-93.7%) , 85.9% (95%CI 81.8%-90.0%) ,and 84.6% (95%CI 79.7%-89.5%) at 1 year, 5 years and 10 years post operation. Survival rate was 74.4% (95%CI 64.8%-84.0%) , 73.0% (95%CI 63.2%-82.8%) , and 73.0% (95%CI 63.2%-82.8%) at 1 year, 5 years, and 10 years post the first stage palliation surgery, 97.8% (95%CI 95.8%-99.7%) , 95.2% (95%CI 92.3%-98.1%) , and 95.2% (95%CI 92.3%-98.1%) at 1 year, 5 years, and 10 years post Glenn shunt surgery, 95.6% (95%CI 92.5%-98.7%) and 93.7% (95%CI 88.8%-98.6%) at 1 year and 5 years post Fontan surgery. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (HR=5.47, 95%CI 2.71-11.04, P<0.001), atrioventricular valve regurgitation more than moderate (HR=2.52, 95%CI 1.32-4.79, P=0.005), systemic ventricular outflow tract obstruction (HR=3.47, 95%CI 1.30-9.29, P=0.013), and required the first palliation surgery (HR=3.12, 95%CI 1.59-6.15, P=0.001) were risk factors of postoperative death.
Conclusions:The multistage surgery can effectively improve the survival of patientswith functional single ventricle and is associated with satisfactory long-term prognosis. Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection, atrioventricular valve regurgitation more than moderate, systemic ventricular outflow tract obstruction, and required the first palliation surgery are risk factors of postoperative death in these patients.
