Area of Science:

  • Congenital Heart Surgery
  • Pediatric Cardiology
  • Thoracic Surgery

Background:

  • Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is a critical congenital heart defect requiring surgical intervention.
  • Pulmonary vein obstruction is a significant complication in TAPVC, necessitating large anastomoses.
  • Accurate anatomical assessment and surgical technique are crucial for successful outcomes.

Observation:

  • A female neonate presented with infracardiac TAPVC and a hypoplastic common pulmonary vein.
  • Surgical repair was performed using an innovative sutureless intra-atrial technique.
  • The surgical approach prioritized creating a large anastomosis while considering the left atrium's spatial relationship.

Findings:

  • The sutureless intra-atrial technique was successfully applied in this complex TAPVC case.
  • The patient experienced no complications post-operatively.
  • The neonate was discharged 20 days after the surgical procedure.

Implications:

  • This case demonstrates the feasibility and effectiveness of a sutureless technique for treating TAPVC in neonates.
  • The approach may offer advantages in managing hypoplastic pulmonary veins and complex anatomical variations.
  • Further research could explore the long-term outcomes and broader applicability of this surgical innovation.
