Patent ductus arteriosus before and after surgery.

    Summary

    Surgical closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is effective, with no mortality. Early surgery in children promotes better catch-up growth, and long-term follow-up shows resolution of cardiomegaly.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Cardiology
    • Cardiovascular Surgery
    • Congenital Heart Disease

    Background:

    • Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a common congenital heart defect.
    • Surgical intervention is a primary treatment for PDA.
    • Understanding clinical presentation and surgical outcomes is crucial.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To retrospectively analyze clinical characteristics, surgical management, and outcomes of PDA patients.
    • To evaluate the correlation between hemodynamic parameters and imaging findings.
    • To assess the long-term impact of surgical closure on growth and cardiac status.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective study of 25 patients with PDA undergoing surgical closure.
    • Review of clinical data, echocardiography, electrocardiography, and cardiac catheterization findings.

  • Analysis of surgical techniques (division vs. ligation) and postoperative follow-up.

    • Main Results:

    • PDA predominantly affected females (4:1 ratio).
    • Common findings included continuous murmurs, cardiomegaly, and left ventricular hypertrophy.
    • Cardiac catheterization revealed varying degrees of pulmonary hypertension and flow.
    • Early surgical intervention correlated with improved postoperative catch-up growth.
    • No mortality was observed, and cardiomegaly resolved in patients followed for over a year.

    Conclusions:

    • Surgical closure of PDA is a safe and effective procedure with excellent long-term outcomes.
    • Early surgical repair is associated with better catch-up growth in pediatric patients.
    • Postoperative follow-up confirms the resolution of cardiac abnormalities and absence of mortality.
