Partial and Transitional Atrioventricular Septal Defect Outcomes [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2010
Surgical and perioperative improvements permit earlier repair of partial and transitional atrioventricular septal defects (AVSD). We sought to describe contemporary outcomes in a multicenter cohort.We studied 87 patients undergoing primary biventricular repair of partial or transitional AVSD between June 2004 and February 2006 across seven North ...

Percutaneous Closure of an Iatrogenic Inlet Ventricular Septal Defect in an Atrioventricular Canal

open access: yesJACC: Case Reports, 2020
A 45-year-old woman with a partial atrioventricular canal presented with an iatrogenic interventricular shunt after implantation of a mechanical mitral prosthesis. The shunt was occluded percutaneously with an Amplatzer Duct Occluder II.

Repair of Partial Atrioventricular Septal Defect: Age and Outcomes [PDF]

open access: yesThe Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2016
We evaluated the outcomes of patients undergoing surgical repair of partial atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) and analyzed the effect of age on outcome.In this single-center retrospective study, we included all children who underwent repair of partial AVSD between 1990 and 2014.

Minimally Invasive Surgery for Simple Congenital Heart Defects: Preserving Aesthetics without Jeopardizing Patient Safety

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2023
Minimally invasive surgeries for pediatric patients have been proposed for decades, with different approaches in mind. Minimal right axillary thoracotomy (MRAT), proposed two decades ago, allows the preservation of patients’ safety alongside faster ...

The transcription factor Sox7 modulates endocardiac cushion formation contributed to atrioventricular septal defect through Wnt4/Bmp2 signaling

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2021
Cardiac septum malformations account for the largest proportion in congenital heart defects. The transcription factor Sox7 has critical functions in the vascular development and angiogenesis.

Repair of double orifice mitral valve with an atrioventricular septal defect in a girl with Ellis–Van Creveld syndrome

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2022
Ellis–van Creveld syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the EVC and EVC2 genes. The four principal manifestations are chondrodysplasia, polydactyly, ectodermal dysplasia, and congenital heart defects. We describe the case

Perioperative and Anesthetic Considerations in Atrioventricular Septal Defect

open access: yes, 2017
Atrioventricular septal defect results from a failure of normal endocardial cushion fusion during embryologic cardiac development. This developmental aberration results in defects in the atrial and/or ventricular septum and malformation of the ...
