Blalock Taussig Shunt

SummaryA two-month-old boy, with complex pulmonary atresia, became increasingly cyanosed 10 days after a modified 5 mm right Blalock-Taussig shunt. There was no shunt flow on auscultation or Doppler echocardiography. Despite anticoagulation with heparin, the shunt remained occluded. After demonstration of the occluded shunt at angiography, a guide wire was easily passed through the occlusion and into the pulmonary artery. Balloon dilation was then successfully accomplished with a 6 mm diameter angioplasty balloon resulting in a patent shunt. The shunt was still widely patent at cardiac catheterization six months later.

Blalock Taussig Shunt

AbstractWe present pressure–volume loops obtained from two patients with single-ventricle physiology, one with a modified Blalock–Taussig shunt and one with a right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery shunt. The dissimilarities in pressure–volume loop contour and related indices highlight potentially important differences in ventricular mechanics between the shunt types.
