    Comparison of different pulmonary valve reconstruction techniques during transannular repair of tetralogy of fallot
    (WILEY, 2021-01-01) Temur, Bahar; Aydin, Selim; Suzan, Dilek; Kirat, Baris; Demir, Ibrahim Halil; Erek, Ersin
    Background Transannular patch, which results in pulmonary insufficiency (PI), is usually required during repair of tetralogy of fallot (TOF). In this study, we compared three types of pulmonary valve reconstruction techniques during transannular repair of TOF. Methods Between February 2014 and January 2018, 50 patients with TOF underwent primary repair with transannular patch. These patients were divided into three groups. In Group 1, (n = 15), a single gluteraldehyde-treated autologous pericardial patch (standard method) was reconstructed as monocusp. In Group 2, (n = 16) Nunn's bileaflet pulmonary valve reconstruction technique was used with pericardial patch. In Group 3, (n = 19), Nunn's bileaflet technique was performed with expanded polytetrafluoroethylene membrane. The outcomes of the patients and early and midterm competency of the pulmonary valves were analyzed. Results These techniques were significantly effective in early postoperative period. Freedom from moderate to severe PI were 73.3\%

    Mediastinal vacuum-assisted closure therapy following pediatric congenital cardiac surgery
    (BAYCINAR MEDICAL PUBL-BAYCINAR TIBBI YAYINCILIK, 2017-01-01) Aydin, Selim; Temur, Bahar; Suzan, Dilek; Kirat, Baris; Demir, Ibrahim Halil; Ozen, Metehan; Erek, Ersin
    Background: In this study, we report nine pediatric cases who developed sternal wound complications following complex congenital cardiac surgery and treated with mediastinal vacuum-assisted closure technique. Methods: Between January 2014 and December 2015, a total of 473 congenital heart operations were performed in our hospital. Of these patients, nine (8 males, 1 females

    Utility of Cervical Cannulation During Difficult Resternotomy in Congenital Heart Surgery
    (SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2020-01-01) Temur, Bahar; Davutoglu, Arda; Dogruoz, Alper; Aydin, Selim; Suzan, Dilek; Kirat, Baris; Odemis, Ender; Erek, Ersin
    Background: Adhesions due to previous surgeries and some anatomical difficulties may make resternotomy dangerous in children. Femoral vessels are usually small and may not be suitable for cannulation. The aim of this report is to describe our experience with cervical cannulation during risky resternotomy in children. Methods: Between January 2014 and January 2018, cervical cannulation was performed in eight pediatric patients during sternal reentry. Their ages were between 3 months and 17 years (mean: 5.4 years). Three patients underwent stage III extracardiac Fontan operation with the diagnosis of hypoplastic left heart syndrome. Three patients had supravalvular aortic and/or pulmonary stenosis after previous arterial switch operation. One patient had proximal aortic arch stenosis and subvalvular aortic stenosis after interrupted aortic arch repair. The last patient had aortic root pseudoaneurysm and aortic insufficiency due to endocarditis. Through a separate cervical incision, a polytetrafluoroethylene graft was anastomosed to the common carotid artery and the arterial cannula was inserted into the graft. Antegrade selective cerebral perfusion (ASCP) was used in two patients. Results: During resternotomies, no major injury or bleeding occurred. Three-month-old patient who had previous interrupted aortic arch repair died despite extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support due to sepsis and multi-organ failure. Median intensive care unit stay and hospital stay were 3 days (1-40 days) and 17 days (7-60 days), respectively. Mean follow-up was 17.9 +/- 15.8 months. All patients were in good clinical condition. Conclusions: Cervical cannulation may be a useful and safe technique during high-risk resternotomy in children. This technique may also simplify the performance of ASCP if necessary.
