Q

grafts mC used in CABG

A
  • saphenous v = #1
  • internal mammary a=#2
  • radial a, IMA,
132
Q

arterial vs venous CABG grafts

A

Venous grafts have demonstrated a tendency to develop partial or complete occlusions with time, whereas arterial grafts have shown relative resis- tance to plaque formation and obstruction. How- ever, arterial conduits are more limited in their availability and ease of procurement compared with venous grafts, specifically the saphenous vein. Therefore, saphenous vein grafts (SVGs) remain the most commonly used conduits.

133
Q

etiology of venous CABG graft complications

A

Early graft occlusion is primarily due to vascular damage that can occur at surgery, whereas vessel wall changes resulting from expo- sure to systemic blood pressure may predispose to occlusion in later stages.

134
Q

general localization of grafts

A

A right SVG (a) is attached to the anterior aorta proximally and to the posterior de- scending artery distally. A left SVG (b) has an altered appearance because it is attached to the aorta with an aortic connector device (arrow); the origin of this SVG is moved laterally to prevent kinking. A typical left IMA graft (c) is left intact at its origin and grafted to the LAD artery distally.

-Echo hindered by retrosternal loc and complex geo

252
Q

tricuspid atresia

A

hypoplastic Right ventricle
N sized heart, (-) pulm vasc
-muscular/fatty ridge in location of TV
-ass: 100% have ASD, VSD and 30% transposition

253
Q

what is an overriding aorta?

A

aorta arises over a VSD rather than over the LV –> de-oxy and oxy blood circ

254
Q

truncus arteriosis-pathophys, leaflets of TA, radiograph findings, classification scheme, mx

A
  • pathophys: failure of truncoconal ridges to fuse –> failed division of TA into aorta and pulm a, defect in Vt septum.
  • leaflets: 2-5 (3 MC)
  • Rgx: R. arch, CMG, pulm vasc+
  • Collett & Edward’s: var org PA from trunks (MC=type I: MPA arise from L pstlat asp
  • sx: new pulm outflow tract w/ synthetic graft material (watch CA’s!)
255
Q

mc cyanotic heart disease of newborn

A

transposition of GV

256
Q

pathophys TOGV

A

failed clockwise rotation of of aorticopulmonary septum (which normally puts AV pst & R of PV)

257
Q

tricuspid atresia: findings, ass, mx

A

-muscular fatty ridge of tissue in loc of TV sep large RA from hypoplastic RV.
+FO or ASD for flow into LA
+VSD for low into pulm circ
(-) pulm circ

  • Ass: TOGV (MC), pulm stenosis
  • Glenn (SVC –> pulm a), Fontan (RA –> pulm) + correction of intracardiac shunts or transposition
258
Q

RV “atrialization”- what does it mean, consequence

A
  • RV incorporated into RA

- this portion has abN thin wall –> tricuspid regurg

259
Q

which leaflets are abnormally displaced in Ebstein anomaly?

A

septal & pst

260
Q

Epstein appearance

A

Rgx: box shape (elongated, enlarged RA)

261
Q

Ebstein ass

A

patent FO
secundum AsD
ECG abN
Li in early pregnancy

262
Q

Rx TOF

A

surgical:

  • palliative shunt (Blalock-Taussig)
  • compplete repairr infundibular outflow obstr w/ patching of VSD (Lillehei procedure)
