Double outlet right ventricle (DORV) with or without pulmonary atresia is a common indication for Rastelli operation. We very infrequently perform this surgery in our center. Here, we report a case of a ten-year-old girl who recently underwent Rastelli operation and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) ligation for DORV, pulmonary atresia with ductal dependent pulmonary circulation by using custom-made valved conduit

Fifty cases of pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum were reviewed. The patients were divided into two groups depending on the size of the right ventricle. Clinical, roentgenographic, and electrocardiographic findings in each group are discussed. The most reliable method for determining the size of the right ventricle is selective angiography with injection of dye into the right ventricle. Up until 1967, with or without having surgery, patients of both groups died. Since then emergency cardiac catheterization and balloon septostomy followed by operative creation of a Potts' anastomosis and ligation of patent ductus arteriosus has improved results in patients with a small right ventricle.

AbstractLimb ischaemia is a rare but catastrophic complication related to cardiac catheterisation. We report an infant weighing 3 kg with unrepaired tricuspid atresia type 1b, small patent ductus arteriosus, and ventricular septal defect presenting with cardiogenic shock owing to progressively reduced pulmonary blood flow from closing ventricular septal defect and patent ductus arteriosus. An emergency palliative ductal stent was successfully placed with marked clinical improvement. However, acute limb ischaemia developed necessitating above-knee amputation, despite medical management and vascular surgery. The cause of limb loss in our patient was catheterisation-related vascular injury causing arterial dissection–arterial thrombosis in the presence of shock and coagulopathy. This report emphasises the complexity in managing limb ischaemia associated with coagulopathy and highlights the importance of early recognition of reduced pulmonary flow in a single ventricle patient. Timely elective placement of a surgical systemic to pulmonary shunt would prevent catastrophic clinical presentation of compromised pulmonary flow and avoid the need for an emergent life-saving intervention and its associated complications.

Abstract: Congenital heart disease is a structural defect due to the malformation of the heart, aorta, and or great blood vessels. It is the most frequent congenital malformation in newborn babies. Tetralogy of Fallot is one of the congenital heart diseases (CHD) with central cyanosis, and covers 5-10% of all CHD. We reported a boy of one year old with Tetralogy of Fallot and pulmonal atresia (ToF-PA), associated with bronchopneumonia. The diagnosis was based on anamnesis, physical examination, and other supporting examinations. The chest X-ray showed a normal sized heart (CTR 57%) with coer-en-sabot shape, and right and left parahilar infiltration, which resulted in bronchopneumonia and ToF. The electrocardiography showed a right deviation of axis and a hypertrophy of the right ventricle; the echocardiography showed a right ventricle hypertrophy, an over-riding aorta, a large malalignment of the ventricular septal defect, no visualization of pulmonar artery, and no visualization of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). Conclusion: Based on all the tests performed, the diagnosis of this patient was Tetralogy of Fallot and pulmonal atresia (ToF-PA), associated with bronchopneumonia. The prognosis related to bronchopneumonia in this case was good due to the use of antibiotics. Keywords: tetralogy of Fallot, pulmona atresia, bronchopneumonia.  Abstrak: Penyakit jantung bawaan (PJB) ialah kelainan struktural akibat malformasi jantung, aorta dan atau pembuluh darah besar, dan merupakan kelainan kongenital tersering pada bayi baru lahir. Tetralogi Fallot merupakan salah satu PJB dengan sianosis sentral, dan mencakup 5-10% dari seluruh PJB. Kami melaporkan kasus seorang anak laki-laki berusia satu tahun dengan Tetralogi Fallot dan atresia pulmonal (ToF-PA) disertai bronkopneumonia. Diagnosis ditegakkan melalui anamnesis, pemeriksaan fisik, dan pemeriksaan penunjang. Hasil ekspertisi foto toraks AP memperlihatkan ukuran jantung normal (CTR 57%) berbentuk coer-en-sabot, dan pada paru-paru terlihat infiltrat parahilar kanan dan kiri serta corakan vaskular paru berkurang yang menunjukkan suspek bronkopneumonia dan ToF. Elektrokardiografi memperlihatkan deviasi aksis ke kanan dan hipertrofi ventrikel kanan, dan pada ekokardiografi tampak right ventricle hypertrophy, overriding aorta, VSD malalignment besar, tidak tampak visualisasi arteri pulmonal, dan tidak tampak patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) dengan hasil Tetralogi Fallot dan atresia pulmonal. Simpulan: Berdasarkan hasil pemeriksaan yang dilakukan, diagnosis pasien ini ialah Tetralogi Fallot dan atresia pulmonal (ToF-PA) disertai bronkopneumonia. Prognosis bronkopenumonia pada kasus ini baik yang dapat diatasi dengan antibiotika.Kata kunci: tetralogi Fallot, atresia pulmonal, bronkopneumonia.

AbstractObjectiveTo determine the feasibility and safety of the Conquest Pro wire as an alternative to radiofrequency wire for perforation of atretic pulmonary valve and subsequent balloon dilatation and patent ductus arteriosus stenting in patients with pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum.BackgroundRadiofrequency valvotomy and balloon dilatation has become the standard of care for pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum in many institutions today.MethodsWe report eight consecutive patients in whom we used the Conquest Pro coronary guidewire, a stiff wire normally reserved for revascularisation of coronary lesions with chronic total occlusion, for perforation of atretic pulmonary valve and subsequent balloon dilatation, and stenting of the patent ductus arteriosus.ResultsPerforation of atretic pulmonary valve was successful in seven out of eight cases. Radiofrequency valvotomy was employed after failure of perforation by the Conquest Pro wire in one case where the right ventricular outflow tract was broad based and tapered towards the pulmonary valve, and was heavily trabeculated. Failure of the Conquest Pro wire to perforate the pulmonary valve plate was mainly attributed by the failure to engage the wire at the correct position.ConclusionThe Conquest Pro wire for perforation and subsequent interventions in the more straightforward cases of pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum is effective and safe, simplifying the entire procedure. However, the radiofrequency generator and wires remain essential tools in the paediatric interventional catheter laboratory.
