Endocardial Cushion Defect

Trisomy 21, Down syndrome, is one of a number of chromosomal abnormalities associated with congenital heart disease. Recent studies indicate that approximately 5% of all congenital heart defects are associated with some form of chromosomal abnormality, the majority of which are Down syndrome. Reports of the incidence of congenital heart disease in patients who have Down syndrome have varied, but it is commonly accepted to be 50%. Endocardial cushion defect and ventricular septal defects both have been reported as the "most common," but the majority of investigators accept the endocardial cushion defect as being the more frequent. The association between endocardial cushion defects and Down syndrome is so striking that when an endocardial cushion defect is diagnosed in an infant, the possibility of Down syndrome always should be considered.

Delayed Closure

There are several strategies of surgical approach for the repair of multiple muscular ventricular septal defects (mVSDs), but none leads to a fully predictable, satisfactory therapeutic outcome in infants. We followed a concept of treating multiple mVSDs consisting of a hybrid approach based on intraoperative perventricular implantation of occluding devices. In this report, we describe a 2-step procedure consisting of a final hybrid approach for multiple mVSDs in the infant following initial coarctation repair with pulmonary artery banding in the newborn. At 7 months, sternotomy and debanding were performed, the right ventricle was punctured under transesophageal echocardiographic guidance, and the 8-mm device was implanted into the septal defect. Color Doppler echocardiography results showed complete closure of all VSDs by 11 months after surgery, probably via a mechanism of a localized inflammatory response reaction, ventricular septum growth, and implant endothelization.
