BACKGROUND AND AIMS OF THE STUDY: Aortic valve disease in the pediatric population poses special problems to surgeons and cardiologists. The pulmonary autograft has proven to be a good alternative for aortic valve replacement and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) reconstruction in this special group.
METHODS: Forty-one children (mean age 10.0 +/- 4.8 (SD) years; range: 35 days to 18.8 years) underwent aortic root replacement with a pulmonary autograft between February 1994 and April 1998. Twenty-one patients (51%) had previous cardiac surgery; seven (17%) had balloon valvulotomy. Aortic root replacement was combined with other techniques for various disorders, including tunnel LVOT obstruction, ventricular septal defect (VSD)-aortic insufficiency complex, neoaortic insufficiency following arterial switch procedure, and subvalvular stenosis following correction of type B interruption of the aortic arch (IAA) with VSD (IAA-B/VSD).
RESULTS: The mean follow up was 1.7 +/- 1.0 years (range 44 days to 4.1 years). Total follow up time was 67.8 patient-years. Two patients, both after repair of interrupted aortic arch, died intraoperatively (4.9%). There was no late mortality. Two patients were reoperated on (5.1%), one for autograft insufficiency due to cuspal perforation and one for right ventricular outflow tract stenosis at the distal anastomosis. Thirty-eight patients (97%) are currently in NYHA class I; one child with a preoperatively poor left ventricular function did not improve and is in class II. At the latest echocardiographic follow up, neoaortic regurgitation was absent in 19% of patients, trivial in 69% and mild in 11%. Homograft insufficiency was absent in 64%, trivial in 31% and mild in 6%. All mean gradients for both autograft and homograft were < 15 mmHg.
CONCLUSIONS: The Ross operation can be performed with good results in infants and children with different forms of LVOT obstruction and aortic insufficiency, though aortic stenosis following IAA-B/VSD repair poses a surgically difficult problem.
