INTRODUCTION Incidence of congenital heart disease is 25 per thousand live birth in Bangladesh which is much higher than other countries. Tetralogy of Fallot, the commonest cyanotic heart disease (5%) and some other complex diseases with right ventricular outflow tract abnormality demand surgical correction and revision in many occasions including percutaneous intervention. As a resource constraint country, it was a difficult task to introduce percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) with MelodyTM. However, it was started on 12th December 2012 in Combined Military Hospital Dhaka, Bangladesh and cases performed till October 2019 were included in this series. METHODS Retrospective analysis of six cases who had PPVI with MelodyTM in Combined Military Hospital, Bangladesh. Patient with dysfunctional conduit between right ventricle (RV) and pulmonary artery causing (a) Symptoms of exceptional dyspnoea of various grade (NYHA II,III, IV) (b) RVEVD >150 ml/m2 ±regurgitant fraction >40% (c) RVOT peak instantaneous gradient > 30 mm Hg. (d) RV dysfunction (RVEF<40%) were accepted for the procedure and outcome were analyzed. RESULTS Mean age was 9.56 ± 2.96 years, weight was 28.75 ± 8.61 kg, height was 137.5 ± 17.52 cm. Mean age at surgery was 4.25 ± 2.72 years. Female were 66.66%. Aortic homograft was used in 66.66% cases. Eighteen mm Ensemble was used in four (66.66%) cases and 20 mm and 22 mm in one each. Immediate result was excellent with no residual PS in two cases and negligible residual flow acceleration across pulmonary valve in four cases. No PR seen in all except one. One patient developed Bacterial endocarditis after 3 years and was treated. CONCLUSION Aim of PPVI is to prolong the life expectancy of conduits which were placed surgically from right ventricle to pulmonary artery. In our case series, we found that Melody valve is functioning well without any complications like infective endocarditis or stent fracture. KEYWORDS PPVI, MelodyTM, RVOT, Outcome

Unique Case

Submitral aneurysms are rare clinical entities occurring predominantly in young adults of African descent. A host of etiologies have been proposed for this entity. We present a unique case of submitral aneurysm which developed after pulmonary artery banding in a three-year-old girl with complex congenital heart disease. The aneurysmal sac was burrowing into the interatrial septum.

Abstract Background Adults with complex congenital heart disease palliated with systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunts have become rare and represent a particularly challenging patient group for the cardiologist. One of the complications and causes of severe clinical deterioration during long-term follow-up are progressive obstruction or total occlusion of the shunt. The risk for surgical intervention is frequently high and catheter intervention may be complicated by complex anatomy and shunt calcification. Case summary We report the case of a 47-year-old man with uncorrected (palliated) pulmonary atresia and ventricular septal defect who presented with progressive cyanosis (oxygen saturation 69%) and decreasing exercise capacity. Computed tomography revealed a totally occluded modified left Blalock–Taussig (BT) shunt and a severely stenosed central shunt (Waterston–Cooley) in a patient with confluent but hypoplastic pulmonary arteries and multiple major aortic pulmonary collaterals. Due to a high operative risk, an interventional, percutaneous approach was preferred to re-do surgery. From a radial access the calcified BT shunt could be crossed with a hydrophilic guidewire. Then, a rotational thrombectomy, balloon dilatation, and bare-metal stenting at the proximal and distal anastomoses were performed. Post-interventionally, peripheral oxygen saturation increased from 69% to 82%. Clopidogrel was administered for 1 month after bare-metal stenting. At 1-year follow-up, the BT shunt was still patent on echocardiography and exercise tolerance markedly improved. Discussion This case highlights the benefit of percutaneous rotational thrombectomy followed by stenting of chronically occluded systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunts for further palliation in adult patients with complex congenital heart disease not suitable for surgical repair.
