BACKGROUND: Congenital septal defects with a large left-to-right shunt often cause pulmonary hypertension, which complicates surgical repair of the defects.
METHODS: Twenty-four patients with congenital cardiac septal defects and severe pulmonary hypertension had operation to close the septal defect using a unidirectional valve patch during a 3-year period. The ratio of systolic pulmonary artery pressure to systolic arterial blood pressure was near to or more than 1.0 in all patients.
RESULTS: Two patients died in the hospital after operation, and there have been no deaths during intermediate term follow-up. Mean pulmonary artery pressure decreased from 80 +/- 12 mm Hg to 56 +/- 18 mm Hg. The ratio of pulmonary artery pressure to systemic arterial pressure dropped from 1.1 +/- 0.1 mm Hg to 0.7 +/- 0.1 mm Hg. The unidirectional valve patch functioned allowing right to left shunting in 4 patients with a systolic pulmonary artery pressure more than systolic arterial blood pressure immediately after closure of a septal defect. The patch sealed or was effectively closed by the third postoperative day. There was impressive improvement in symptoms and exercise tolerance after operation during the 3-month to 3-year (mean, 1.1 year) follow-up period.
CONCLUSIONS: The unidirectional valve patch is useful for management of patients having operation to close cardiac septal defects in the presence of severe pulmonary hypertension.
