| Popis: | The long-term outcomes of a total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC) with an extracardiac conduit (ECC) for patients with apicocaval juxtaposition (ACJ) remain unclear.A total of 38 patients with ACJ who underwent TCPC with ECC between 1998 and 2014 were enrolled in this study. For 19 patients with a superior vena cava - inferior vena cava contralateral position, a long-curved route rounding the opposite side of the apex was selected (CC group). For 11 patients with a superior vena cava-inferior vena cava ipsilateral position, a long-curved route was principally selected (IC group); however, a short, straight route was selected for 8 patients because there was sufficient space behind the ventricular apex (IS group).Follow-up was completed in all patients, with a mean follow-up duration of 13.2 ± 4.9 years. The angles of the caudal conduit anastomosis site measured from the frontal view of cineangiography had significantly straightened in the CC group from 1 year to 15 years (P.05) and in the IC group from 1 year to 10 years (P.05). There were 2 late mortalities and 6 reoperations during follow-up. Overall survival and freedom from reoperation rates at 15 years were 95% and 82%, respectively. There were no conduit-related or route-related complications such as death, reoperations, pulmonary venous obstructions, conduit obstructions, or pulmonary arteriovenous malformations in any of the groups.Even though chronologic geometric changes of curved ECCs were observed, TCPC with ECC for patients with ACJ can be safely applied without conduit- or route-related complications in long-term follow-up. |
