Q

Vanishing lung syndrome

A

idiopathic cause of giant bullous emphysema, results from avascular necrosis of the lung parenchyma and hyper inflation

  • favors bilateral upper lobes
  • defined as bullous disease occupying at least 1/3 of a hemithorax
  • most common in young men

Q

when is a superior sulcus tumor unresectable?

A
  • involvement of brachial plexus above T1
  • diaphragm paralysis (C3,4,5)
  • greater than 50% of vertebral body
  • distal nodes or mets
17
Q

Hughes Stovin syndrome

A
  • recurrent thrombophlebitis and pulmonary artery aneurysm formation and rupture
18
Q

ddx for CHF in newborn

A
  • TAPVR (infracardiac)
  • congenital aortic or mitral stenosis
  • hypoplastic left heart
  • cor triatriatum
  • Infantile (pre-ductal) coarctation
19
Q

ddx for small heart

A
  • Addison’s disease
  • cachectic state
  • constrictive pericarditis
20
Q

associations with PDA

A
  • prematurity
  • Maternal rubella
  • cyanotic heart disease
21
Q

Holt Oram

A

hand/thumb defects +ASD

22
Q

Norwood procedure

  • when is it done?
  • what does the procedure entail?
A
  • within days of birth (HLHS)
  • tiny aorta is anastomosed to pulmonary trunk and arch is augmented with a graft
  • ASD is enlarged
  • PDA is ligated (to prevent overshunting)
  • BT shunt between Right subclavian artery and right pulmonary artery
23
Q

Sano procedure

A
  • same as norwood, but using conduit to connect right ventricle to pulmonary artery instead of a B-T shunt
24
Q

Glenn

  • Classic
  • Bi directional
A

Classic: SVC to Right pulmonary artery (end to end)
bidirectional: shunt between SVC and right pulmonary artery (end to side); RPA is left open, letting blood flow to both lungs

25
Q

Fontan

A

Glenn + closure of ASD + shunt between right atrium to left PA

26
Q

complications of Fontan

A
  • right atriomegaly and arrhythmia

- plastic bronchitis

27
Q

Blalock Taussig shunt

A
  • classically done for TOF
  • shunt between sublcavian artery and pulmonary artery
  • done on opposite side of ortic arch
  • modified B-T shunt uses a Gortex shunt
28
Q

Rastelli procedure

A
  • used to correct TGA, pulmonary outflow obstruction, or VSD
  • VSD used as the LVOT - baffle is placed in RV to divert flow as VSD to aorta
  • pulmonary valve is oversewn and conduit is inserted between RV and PA
29
Q

Jatene procedure

A
  • aorta and pulmonary trunk are transected at level of sinuses and switched so that LV becomes systemic ventricle
  • coronaries are removed and re-implanted to new aorta (PA)
  • no conduit used
30
Q

Ross procedure

A
  • used for disease aortic valves in children
  • native pulmonary valve is used to replace the aortic valve
  • cyroperserved pulmonary valve homograft is used to replace pulmonary valve
31
Q

Bentall procedure

A

composite graft replacement of aortic valve, aortic root, and ascending aorta with re-implantation of coronary arteries into graft
- used to treat combined aortic valve and ascending aorta disease, including Marfans
