Abstract:
Currently, there is a lack of localized guidelines or consensus on the management of Ebstein anomaly (EA) in China, particularly concerning the treatment of neonates and infants. The 2024 Expert Consensus issued by the American Association for Thoracic Surgery provides detailed guidance on the clinical management of EA, covering key aspects such as the timing of surgical interventions, selection of surgical techniques, and postoperative management. The interpretation of this consensus is of great significance for thoracic surgeons in China to understand the latest international academic developments and can serve as a valuable reference for clinical practice. The consensus outlines the latest surgical techniques adopted internationally, including the Starnes procedure, biventricular repair, and 1.5 ventricle repair, and provides an in-depth analysis of the optimal timing and strategies for interventions in different cases. This offers a theoretical foundation and technical reference for advancing the field in China, contributing to the standardization and regulation of EA treatment.
