28
Q

Mixed TAPVR

A

usually a mix of types I, II, and III

29
Q

What is the severity of mixed TAPVR?

A

Can vary significantly; all encompassing mix of whatever does not fit in the other classes

30
Q

Obstructive TAPVR: Severity

A

Severity depends on whether the pulmonary veins are obstructed

31
Q

How do pulmonary veins run in obstructed TAPVR?

A

Into the abdomen, passing through the diaphragm; this squeezes the veins and narrows them, causing the blood to back up into the lungs (RA, RV pressures increase)

32
Q

When does obstructive TAPVR cause symptoms?

A

Causes them early! deadly if not recognized and surgically corrected

33
Q

Obstructive TAPVR (List)

A 
Pulmonary venous HTN and seconary PA & RV HTN
Less RV and PA volume overload
PUlmonary venous edema
more cyanosis and respiratory distress
Complete mixing
34
Q

Non-obstructive TAPVR (List)

A 
Similar hemodynamics to a large ASD
L --> shunt magnitude is determined by RV compliance and ASD size
Rt heart and pulmonary volume overload
Complete mixing at RA level
Minimal cyanosis due to large PBF
Slight PA pressure elevation
35
Q

How does blood flow in PAPVR?

A

Oxygenated blood returns from the lungs via the pulmonary veins back to the right and also to the left atrium. Pulmonary return blood is divided between the LA and RA in the return to the heart

36
Q

How many PV’s drain in to RA in PAPVR?

A

One or more (Any mix is possible; ex. 3:1 2:2 etc)

37
Q

What is the physiologic consequence in PAPVR?

A

Mild or none

38
Q

What is PAPVR associated with?

A

ASD (sinus venosis or secundum)

39
Q

Surgical Treatment

A

Balloon atrial septostomy has been used with some success to decompress the venous circuit and improve cardiac output in cases of restrictive interatrial communication (Rashkind)

Non-restrictive ASD

40
Q

Surgical Tx Goal

A

recreate an unobstructed venous inflow to the left side chambers and repair of the associated anomalies such as closure of the atrial septal defect (ASD)

41
Q

When is surgical treatment perfect emergently?

A

In newborn period for newborns in TAPVR and obstructed pulmonary veins. Some of these children will actually require ECMO prior to surgery because of their marked hemodynamic instability.

42
Q

What is one the true pediatric emergencies?

A

Obstructive TAPVR

43
Q

PAPVC is normally correct ________ complications.

A

Without

44
Q

TAPVC still carries significant morbidity and mortality in low volume centers due to what?

A

Severe hemodynamic and metabolic compromise

45
Q

What percent of patients undergoing repair of TAPVC require multiple interventions due to recurrent stenosis after initial successful correction?

A

10-15% (with and increasingly poor outcome at each representation)

46
Q

When do children with TAPVR without obstruction to pulmonary veins typically undergo surgical repair?

A

Electively days or weeks after the diagnosis is made

47
Q

What is the benefit of waiting more than one or two months in children needing surgery?

A

Although surgery is not emergent, there is generally little benefit to be gained by waiting more than one or two months

48
Q

In TAPVR, pulmonary veins frequently return to what?

A

Common confluence behind the LA; surgical repair takes advantage of this

49
Q

Common PV confluence is connected to the back of the LA, resulting in what?

A

Normal connected of PV –> LA

Alll other abnormal routes for pulmonary drainge are tied off

50
Q

Intracardiac Repair AKA

A

Warden Procedure

51
Q

Intracardiac Repair AKA

A

Warden Procedure

52
Q

What is the prognosis of surgical reapir?

A

The surgical mortality or detah rate is higher when surgery is performed emergently in critically ill newborns with obstructed pulmonary venous return; this is because they are very sick going to surgery

53
Q

Critically ill newborns who do survive the surgery may require what?

A

Prolonged period of post-op intensive care

54
Q

CPB Conisderations: Cannulation

A

Arterial: Aortic
Venous:
PAPVR (Larger child) Bicaval
TAPVR (newborn) Single atrial

55
Q

CPB Considerations: Temperature

A

Hypothermia: Circ arrest will be utilized partially or completely
DHCA or intermittent depending on exposure and visualization

56
Q

What changes have been made in surgery regarding circ arrest?

A

In the past, almost all infants with TAPVC were reapired using profound hypothermia and circ arrest
Now it can be performed with bicaval cannulation and low flow hypothermic perfusion

57
Q

What is the advantage of circ arrest?

A

Allowing a bloodless field with excellent exposure of the pulmonary venous confluence without the need for unnecessary manipulation or clamping of the pulmonary veins

58
Q

In occasion it’s helpful to introduce what?

A

Brief periods of circ arrest during surgery during hte most critical periods of the operation to optimize surgical exposure with a nearly bloodless field

59
Q

What else have some centers advocated during CPB in TAPVR?

A

Use of ECMO during resuscitation

In few cases, ECMO has been adopted after the repair ot support neonates with residual pulmonary HTN

60
Q

What are some case notes for TAPVR patients?

A

These children are very sick
Pre and post ECMO are a big possiblity
Birth weights tend to be small
Pulmonary blood flow undergoes a BIG change that can shock the body (Think Qp/Qs)

61
Q

What type of cases do these TAPVR surgeries tend to be?

A

Call in cases

62
Q

Can they stil struggle post septostomy?

A

Yes

63
Q

When is ECMO frequent?

A

Post op

64
Q

What must decrease in order for complete restoration of normal circulation?

A

Pulmonary HTN

65
Q

What are the patients generally with TAPVR?

A

SMall weight children in severe distress

66
Q

What may develop in these kids?

A

Impressive acidosis
