A complete case of Cantrell's Pentalogy with isolated left ventricular diverticulum
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2021-01-01) Basgoze, Serdar; Ogunc, Begum; Erek, Ersin
The congenital left ventricular diverticulum is a rare cardiac malformation, and it may associate with Cantrell's Pentalogy with other cardiac defects. However, isolated ventricular diverticulum without any other cardiac defect in complete Cantrell's syndrome is very rare. We describe a 6-year-old male patient with a complete Cantrell's syndrome with isolated left ventricular diverticulum.

Objectives Surgical management of aortic arch hypoplasia (AAH) with associated intracardiac anomalies is a challenge in newborns. We reviewed the characteristics and outcomes of neonates and infants who underwent pulmonary artery banding concomitant to arch repair and single-stage total repair at our institution. Methods Medical records of 60 patients undergoing aortic arch reconstruction for AAH from 2014 to 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. Twenty-five patients were female (41.6\%), and the age of the patients ranged from 4 to 120 days (median, 19.5 days). The patients were divided into two groups: Group 1 (23 patients) underwent pulmonary artery banding concomitant to arch repair, and Group 2 (37 patients) underwent single-stage total repair in addition to arch repair. All arch repair procedures consisted of an extended (to the midportion of the ascending aorta) patch aortoplasty. Results Postoperative early mortality occurred in 12 patients, eight in Group 1 (34.8\%) and four in Group 2 (10.8\%). There was an early survival advantage in Group 2 (p = .019). Recoarctation occurred in 13 cases (21.6\%), and 11 (18.3\%) of them required reintervention (balloon angioplasty: 7, reoperation: 4). On univariate analysis, risk factors associated with death were pulmonary artery banding (hazard ratio {[}HR], 0.44
Outcomes of home mechanical ventilation with tracheostomy after congenital heart surgery
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2021-01-01) Temur, Bahar; Emre, Ismet E.; Aydin, Selim; Onalan, Mehmet A.; Basgoze, Serdar; Ozcan, Esra; Dogruoz, Alper; Erek, Ersin
Objective: After congenital heart surgery, some patients may need long-term mechanical ventilation because of chronic respiratory failure. In this study, we analysed outcomes of the patients who need tracheostomy and home mechanical ventilation. Methods: Amongst 1343 patients who underwent congenital heart surgery between January, 2014 and June, 2018, 45 needed tracheostomy and HMV. The median age of these patients was 6.4 months (12 days-6.5 years). Nineteen patients underwent palliation while 26 patients underwent total repair. Post-operative diaphragm plication was performed in five patients (11\%). Median duration of mechanical ventilation before tracheostomy was 32 days (8-154 days). The patients were followed up with their home ventilators in ward and at home. Mean follow-up time was 36.24 +/- 11.61 months. Results: The median duration of ICU stay after tracheostomy was 27 days (range 2-93 days). Follow-up time in ward was median 30 days (2-156 days). A total of 12 patients (26.6\%) were separated from the ventilator and underwent decannulation during hospital stay. Thirty-two patients (71.1\%) were discharged home with home ventilator support. Of them, 15 patients (46.9\%) were separated from the respiratory support in median of 6 weeks (1 week-11 months) and decannulations were performed. Total mortality was 31.1\%. in which four patients are still HMV dependent. There was no significant difference for decannulation between total repair and palliation patients. Conclusion: HMV via tracheostomy is a useful option for the treatment of children who are dependent on long-term ventilation after congenital heart surgery although there are potential risks.
Repair of complete atrioventricular canal defects: Early and midterm results and comparison of the left anterior leaflet augmentation technique with traditional technics
(WILEY, 2021-01-01) Basgoze, Serdar; Yildiz, Okan; Ozturk, Erkut; Onan, Ismihan Selen
Background Complete atrioventricular septal defects (CAVSD) include a variable spectrum of congenital malformations with different forms of clinical findings. We examined early and midterm outcomes, the need for reoperation, postoperative residual AV valve regurgitation, and other risk factors after various CAVSD repairs. Methods Between 2014 and 2018, we have performed 89 isolated CAVSD repairs. We retrospectively reviewed the patients' medical records. Patients were divided into three groups according to their repair techniques modified one patch repair (MP) (n = 16)

Toward Routine Minimally Invasive Ventricular Septal Defect Closure Via Right Lateral Minithoracotomy
(FRONTIERS MEDIA SA, 2021-01-01) Aydin, Selim; Temur, Bahar; Basgoze, Serdar; Guzelmeric, Fusun; Guvenc, Osman; Erek, Ersin
Background: Improving the surgical results and recent advancement of transcatheter techniques for closure of ventricular septal defect (VSD) increased the demand for minimally invasive approaches. In this study, we analyzed the results of the patients who underwent VSD closure with right lateral minithoracotomy (RLMT). Methods: Between September 2014 and February 2021, 24 patients underwent minimally invasive VSD closure with RLMT. The median age of the patients was 16 months (range, 4-84 months). Fifteen patients (62.5\%) were female. The median weight of the patients was 9.75 kg (range, 4.6-30 kg). The types of VSD were perimembranous in 19 patients, subaortic in three patients, inlet in one patient, and subpulmonic in one patient. Five patients had low-lying pulmonary stenosis in addition to VSD. Results: No perioperative death or major complication occurred during follow-up. All defects were repaired through RLMT. The median cardiopulmonary bypass time was 81 min (range, 44-163 min), and the aortic cross-clamp time was 65 min (range, 33-131 min). The median hospital stay was 6 days (range, 5-21 days). One patient had minimal (2 mm) residual left-to-right shunt. All families were satisfied with the cosmetic results during the follow-up. Conclusions: The RLMT method is a safe and effective alternative to standard median sternotomy for VSD closure and can be performed with favorable cosmetic and clinical results.
