Right Ventricular Remodeling

We report long-term outcome after one-stage, surgical repair, in a two months-old girl with persistent truncus arteriosus type I, II. The operation was carried out with the remodeling of the right ventricle, using a swine bicuspid pulmonary prosthesis. Twenty-six years later, the patient is in excellent clinical condition, CF I (NYHA), with normal peripheral oxygen saturation. Recent invasive and not invasive imaging show: absence of intracardiac shunt and growing of the right ventricle outlet tract and discrete double lesion of the pulmonary valve. The pulmonary flow directed uniformly for both lungs. In selected cases, the long-term prognosis of patients with persistent truncus arteriosus, undergoing early surgical repair, avoiding the use of valved conduit, makes for an excellent evolution, without new interventions. Endovascular procedures, now well standardized, for the implantation of a pulmonary valve stent, through a catheter, will allow an effective approach, in the presence of late obstructions, in patients who have undergone right ventricular remodeling, without the use of valved conduits.

Severe Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Persistent truncus arteriosus is a rare congenital cardiac malformation. It is characterized by a single great artery arising from the heart which supplies the aorta, the origin of coronary arteries and pulmonary arteries. Without surgery, prognosis is poor and 90% of these patients die before one year of age. We report a rare case of an asymptomatic 35-year-old woman with uncorrected persistent truncus arteriosus and hypoplastic right and left pulmonary arteries. Hypoplastic branch pulmonary arteries prevented the development of severe pulmonary arterial hypertension.
