Unroofed coronary sinus syndrome, a rare congenital heart defect, was surgically corrected in 9 patients. Surgical approaches varied based on defect type and associated anomalies, with successful outcomes in all cases.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Congenital Heart Disease
  • Cardiac Surgery

Context:

  • Unroofed coronary sinus syndrome (UCSS) is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly.
  • It often presents with atypical manifestations and can be challenging to diagnose preoperatively.
  • UCSS frequently coexists with other congenital heart anomalies, such as persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC).

Purpose:

  • To describe the surgical correction of UCSS in a cohort of 9 patients.
  • To detail the various operative methods employed based on specific UCSS subtypes and associated anomalies.
  • To highlight the diagnostic challenges and the role of imaging modalities.

Summary:

  • Nine patients with UCSS underwent corrective surgery.
  • Surgical strategies included PLSVC ligation, intra-atrial tunnel creation, baffle repair, and direct coronary sinus roof repair.

Related Experiment Videos

  • All patients survived the operations, demonstrating the efficacy of tailored surgical interventions.

    • Impact:

    • Successful surgical correction of UCSS was achieved in all patients.
    • The study underscores the importance of individualized surgical planning for UCSS based on anatomical variations.
    • Improved understanding of UCSS management and diagnostic support through echocardiography and catheterization.
