In order to achieve good long-term results of combination treatment in children with malignant neoplasms, continuity of stages of the therapy and adherence to the time intervals between the stages are necessary. Severe accompanying pathology can make it difficult or impossible to complete all the necessary steps. The presented clinical case of a child with hepatoblastoma and Tetralogy of Fallot demonstrates the importance of the interdisciplinary work of oncologists, surgical oncologists and cardiac surgeons to ensure the optimal treatment algorithm for such patients.

Several techniques designed to improve long-term results after repair of tetralogy of Fallot are described. We have recently embarked on a program focused on preserving the native pulmonary valve. Here, combined techniques are described in detail, including intraoperative pulmonary valve balloon dilatation, pulmonary valve reconstruction by delamination and resuspension of the leaflets, and pulmonary valve annulus augmentation. As with any other complex congenital heart disease, senior surgeons should select teaching cases, starting from the less severe side of the spectrum.

Background:traumatic ankle joint osteochondral lesions and defects (OHLD) is frequent cause of OA, chronic pain and loss of joint function; results of traditional treatment strategy are often unsatisfyingObjectives:to develop treatment algorithm for OHLD based on evaluation of previously determined main prognostic factors.Methods:the analysis of long-term (36 ± 4.5 months) treatment results of 239 patients after traumatic ankle joint OHLD revealed the following factors with the greatest predictive value (defined by PC – prognostic coefficient) for good result of treatment (defined as AOFAS function score 75-100 points): age < 40 years (PC = 8.5); size of OHLD ≤ 1.0 cm2; volume ≤ 1.5 cm3(PC = 8.0); osteoarthritis stage ≤ II (PC = 7.2). Based on these factors, a step-by-step, discrete and alternative algorithm for the choice of treatment tactics was created. The algorithm includes use of arthroscopic or open debridement, abrasive chondroplasty, bone marrow regeneration stimulation (microfracturing or tunneling), mosaic osteochondroplasty, arthroplasty or arthrodesis, the use of cellular regenerative technologies (bone marrow cells, platelet riched plasma), and others. Patients of older age with advanced OA need complex, step up approach, surgical treatment combined with regenerative cell technologies. The effectiveness of the differentiated approach to treatment was studied in 72 patients with OHLD (main group) in comparing to 72 patients in whom traditional treatment approaches were used, based on the stage of injury according to the Berndt & Hardy classification (comparison group).Results:compared to the traditional approach, the developed algorithm and treatment system allowed to half terms of hospitalization, to reduce the intensity of pain syndrome (by NRS) and increase the functional activity (by AOFAS) by 25%. In 3 years after trauma good/excellent results of treatment demonstrated 86% patients of main group and 32,2% of patients from comparing group (p<0,05).Conclusion:implementation of the developed treatment algorithm increases the number of good and excellent long-term results by 2.6 times and reduces the number of complications and unsatisfactory results by 4.9 times.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

AbstractBackground:In patients with tetralogy of Fallot with the diminutive pulmonary arteries, we sometimes have to give up the complete intra-cardiac repair due to insufficient growth of the pulmonary arteries. We have carried out palliative intra-cardiac repair using a fenestrated patch.Methods:Of all 202 patients with tetralogy of Fallot in our centre since 1996, five patients (2.5%) with the diminutive pulmonary arteries underwent palliative intra-cardiac repair using a fenestrated patch. Mean operative age was 1.8 years. Previous operation was Blalock–Taussig shunt in 4. At operation, the ventricular septal defect was closed using a fenestrated patch and the right ventricular outflow tract was enlarged. Follow-up period was 9.8 ± 2.6 years.Results:There were no operative and late deaths. Fenestration closed spontaneously on its own in four patients 2.7 ± 2.1 years after the intra-cardiac repair with a stable haemodynamics; however, the last patient with the smallest pulmonary artery index had supra-systemic pressure of the right ventricle post-operatively. The fenestration was emergently enlarged. Systemic arterial oxygen saturation was significantly and dramatically increased from 83.5 to 94% after the palliative intra-cardiac repair, and to 98% at the long term. A ratio of systolic pressure of the right ventricle to the left was significantly decreased to 0.76 ± 0.12 at the long term. Now all five patients were Ross classification class I.Conclusion:Although frequent catheter and surgical interventions were needed after the palliative intra-cardiac repair, this repair might be a choice improving quality of life with good results in patients with tetralogy of Fallot associated with the diminutive pulmonary arteries.

AbstractTetralogy of Fallot, when associated with atrioventricular septal defect permitting shunting at ventricular level, represents a complex cyanotic congenital malformation. Experience with surgical repair is limited, and results vary considerably. Between 1984 and 1996, we repaired 14 consecutive patients with this combination seen in our center. Their ages ranged from 8 months to 21 years (median 7.4 years). Six (42.9%) had Down's syndrome. In eight patients the correct diagnosis was made using echocardiogra phy alone. In the remaining six patients, who had previously-constructed arterial shunts and/or suspected pulmonary arterial stenosis, catheterization and angiocardiography were also performed. The repair consisted of double patch closure of the septal defect, reconstruction of two atrioventricular orifices, and relief of pulmonary stenosis at all levels. In five patients with a hypoplastic pulmonary trunk, a monocusp transannular patch (four patients) or an allograft (one patient) was used for restroration of continuity from the right ventricle to the pulmonary arteries. Patch enlargement of one or both pulmonary arteries was necessary in five patients. One patient (7.1%) died early, and another late. The twelve surviving (85.8%) patients have been followed for 1.2–12.5 years after surgery (median 4.9 years, mean 5.9 ± 3.9 years). During the follow-up, reoperation was necessary for repair of residual ventricular septal defect and pulmonary regurgitation in two patients, and closure of an atrial septal defect and alteration to left atrioventricular valvar regurgitation in one patient. Seven patients are in class I of the New York Heart Association, four in class II, and one in class III. Tetralogy of Fallot associated with atrioventricular septal defect can be corrected with low mortality and good long-term results. Residual lesions, however, have a tendency to progress, especially when seen in combination. After surgery, all patients need long-term close follow-up.
