- Lessons Learned From a Critical Analysis of the Fontan Operation Over Three Decades in a Single Institution(2017) CANEO, Luiz Fernando; TURQUETTO, Aida L. R.; NEIROTTI, Rodolfo A.; BINOTTO, Maria A.; MIANA, Leonardo A.; TANAMATI, Carla; PENHA, Juliano G.; SILVEIRA, Joao B. D.; SILVA, Thais M. Alexandre e; JATENE, Fabio B.; JATENE, Marcelo B.Background: The Fontan operation (FO) has evolved and many centers have demonstrated improved results relative to those from earlier eras. We report a single-institution experience over three decades, describing the outcomes and evaluating risk factors. Methods: Successive patients undergoing primary FO were divided into era I (1984-1994), era II (1995-2004), and era III (2005-2014). Clinical and operative notes were reviewed for demographic, anatomic, and procedure details. End points included early and late mortality and a composite of death, heart transplantation (HTX), or Fontan takedown. Results: A total of 420 patients underwent 18 atriopulmonary connections, 82 lateral tunnels (LT), and 320 extracardiac conduit (EC) Fontan procedures. Forty-six (11%) patients died; early and late mortality were 7.9% and 3.1%, respectively. Eight (1.9%) patients underwent HTX, 11 (2.6%) underwent Fontan conversion to EC, and 1 (0.2%) takedown of EC to bidirectional Glenn shunt. Prevalence of concomitant valve surgery (P < .001) and pulmonary artery reconstruction (P < .001) differed over the eras. Preoperative valve regurgitation was associated with likelihood of early mortality (odds ratio [OR] = 3.5, P = .002). Embolic events (OR = 1.9, P = .047), preoperative valve regurgitation (OR = 2.3, P = .029), diagnosis of unbalanced atrioventricular canal defect (OR = 1.14, P = .03), and concomitant valve replacement (OR = 6.9, P = .001) during the FO were associated with increased risk of the composite end point (death, HTX, or takedown). Conclusion: Technical modifications did not result in improved results across eras, due in part to more liberal indications for surgery in the recent years. Valve regurgitation, unbalanced atrioventricular canal, embolic events, or concomitant valve replacement were associated with FO failure.
- Use of Short-term Circulatory Support as a Bridge in Pediatric Heart Transplantation(2015) CANEO, Luiz Fernando; MIANA, Leonardo Augusto; TANAMATI, Carla; PENHA, Juliano Gomes; SHIMODA, Monica Satsuki; AZEKA, Estela; MIURA, Nana; GALAS, Filomena Regina Barbosa Gomes; GUIMARAES, Vanessa Alves; JATENE, Marcelo BiscegliBackground: Heart transplantation is considered the gold standard therapy for the advanced heart failure, but donor shortage, especially in pediatric patients, is the main limitation for this procedure, so most sick patients die while waiting for the procedure. Objective: To evaluate the use of short-term circulatory support as a bridge to transplantation in end-stage cardiomyopathy. Methods: Retrospective clinical study. Between January 2011 and December 2013, 40 patients with cardiomyopathy were admitted in our Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, with a mean age of 4.5 years. Twenty patients evolved during hospitalization with clinical deterioration and were classified as Intermacs 1 and 2. One patient died within 24 hours and 19 could be stabilized and were listed. They were divided into 2 groups: A, clinical support alone and B, implantation of short-term circulatory support as bridge to transplantation additionally to clinical therapy. Results: We used short-term mechanical circulatory support as a bridge to transplantation in 9. In group A (n = 10), eight died waiting and 2 patients (20%) were transplanted, but none was discharged. In group B (n = 9), 6 patients (66.7%) were transplanted and three were discharged. The mean support time was 21,8 days (6 to 984h). The mean transplant waiting list time was 33,8 days. Renal failure and sepsis were the main complication and causeof death in group A while neurologic complications were more prevalent en group B. Conclusion: Mechanical circulatory support increases survival on the pediatric heart transplantation waiting list in patients classified as Intermacs 1 and 2.
- Rational Use of Mechanical Circulatory Support as a Bridge to Pediatric and Congenital Heart Transplantation(2018) MIANA, Leonardo A.; SILVA, Guilherme Viotto Rodrigues da; CANEO, Luiz Fernando; TURQUETTO, Aida Luisa; TANAMATI, Carla; FORONDA, Gustavo; MASSOTI, Maria Raquel; PENHA, Juliano G.; AZEKA, Estela; GALAS, Filomena R. B. G.; JATENE, Fabio B.; JATENE, Marcelo B.Introduction: Donor shortage and organ allocation is the main problem in pediatric heart transplant. Mechanical circulatory support is known to increase waiting list survival, but it is not routinely used in pediatric programs in Latin America. Methods: All patients listed for heart transplant and supported by a mechanical circulatory support between January 2012 and March 2016 were included in this retrospective single-center study. The endpoints were mechanical circulatory support time, complications, heart transplant survival and discharge from the hospital. Results: Twenty-nine patients from our waiting list were assessed. Twelve (45%) patients were initially supported by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and a centrifugal pump was implanted in 17 (55%) patients. Five patients initially supported by ECMO were bridged to another device. One was bridged to a centrifugal pump and four were bridged to Berlin Heart Excor (R). Among the 29 supported patients, 18 (62%) managed to have a heart transplant. Thirty-day survival period after heart transplant was 56% (10 patients). Median support duration was 12 days (interquartile range [IQR] 4-26 days) per run and the waiting time for heart transplant was 9.5 days (IQR 2.5-25 days). Acute kidney injury was identified as a mortality predictor (OR=22.6 [CI=1.04-494.6]; P=0.04). Conclusion: Mechanical circulatory support was able to bridge most INTERMACS 1 and 2 pediatric patients to transplant with an acceptable complication rate. Acute renal failure increased mortality after mechanical circulatory support in our experience.
- Initial experience with del Nido cardioplegia solution at a Pediatric and Congenital Cardiac Surgery Program in Brazil(2022) CANEO, Luiz Fernando; MATTE, Gregory S.; TURQUETTO, Aida Luiza R.; PEGOLLO, Luana Marques de Carvalho; MIGLIOLI, Maria Clara Amato; SOUZA, Gisele T. de; AMATO, Luciana Patrick; MIANA, Leonardo A.; MASSOTI, Maria Raquel B.; PENHA, Juliano G.; TANAMATI, Carla; JATENE, Marcelo B.; JATENE, Fabio B.Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate outcome measures between our standard multidose cardioplegia protocol and a del Nido cardioplegia protocol in congenital heart surgery patients. Methods: Retrospective single-center study including 250 consecutive patients that received del Nido cardioplegia (DN group) with a mandatory reperfusion period of 30% of cross clamp time and 250 patients that received a modified St. Thomas' solution (ST group). Groups were matched by age, weight, gender, and Risk Adjustment for Congenital Heart Surgery (RACHS-1) scores. Preoperative hematocrit and oxygen saturation were also recorded. Outcomes analyzed were the vasoactive inotropic score (VIS), lactate, ventilation time, ventricular dysfunction with low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS), intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay (LOS), hospital LOS, bypass and aortic cross-clamp times, and in-hospital mortality. Results: Both groups were comparable demographically. Statistically significant differences (p <= 0.05) were noted for cardiac dysfunction with LCOS, hematocrit at end of surgery (p = 0.0038), VIS on ICU admission and at end of surgery (p = 0.0111), and ICU LOS (p = 0.00118) with patients in the DN group having more desirable values for those parameters. Other outcome measures did not reach statistical significance. Conclusion: In our congenital cardiac surgery population, del Nido cardioplegia strategy was associated with less ventricular dysfunction with LCOS, a lower VIS and decreased ICU LOS compared with patients that received our standard myocardial protection using a modified St. Thomas' solution. Despite the limitation of this study, including its retrospective nature and cohort size, these data supported our transition to incorporate del Nido cardioplegia solution with a mandatory reperfusion period as the preferred myocardial protection method in our program.
- Heart Transplantation in Children and Adults With Congenital Heart Disease: 3 Decades of Evolution(2023) AZEKA, Estela; SIQUEIRA, Adailson Wagner Da Silva; TANAKA, Ana Cristina; MASSOTI, Maria Raquel Brigoni; MIANA, Leonardo; ZORZANELLI, Leina; GUIMARAES, Vanessa; PENHA, Juliano; CANEO, Luiz Fernando; TANAMATI, Carla; MIURA, Nana; JATENE, Marcelo BiscegliHeart transplantation is the treatment of choice for children and adults with congenital heart disease. We report the heart transplant single-center experience. The number of transplantations has increased over the last 3 decades. The Kaplan-Meier survival curves in the first, second, and third decades at 5 and 10 years were 69% and 59%, 62% and 52%, and 66% and 60%, respectively.
- Early and Long-Term Outcomes of Surgical Treatment of Ebstein's Anomaly(2019) SILVA, Guilherme Viotto Rodrigues da; MIANA, Leonardo Augusto; CANEO, Luiz Fernando; TURQUETTO, Aida Luiza Ribeiro; TANAMATI, Carla; PENHA, Juliano G.; JATENE, Fabio B.; JATENE, Marcelo B.Objective: This study aimed to evaluate Ebstein's anomaly surgical correction and its early and long-term outcomes. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 62 consecutive patients who underwent surgical repair of Ebstein's anomaly in our institution from January 2000 to July 2016. The following long-term outcomes were evaluated: survival, reoperations, tricuspid regurgitation, and postoperative right ventricular dysfunction. Results: Valve repair was performed in 46 (74.2%) patients - 12 of them using the Da Silva cone reconstruction; tricuspid valve replacement was performed in 11 (17.7%) patients; univentricular palliation in one (1.6%) patient; and the one and a half ventricle repair in four (6.5%) patients. The patients' mean age at the time of surgery was 20.5 +/- 14.9 years, and 46.8% of them were male. The mean follow-up time was 8.8 +/- 6 years. The 30-day mortality rate was 8.06% and the one and 10-year survival rates were 91.9% both. Eleven (17.7%) of the 62 patients required late reoperation due to tricuspid regurgitation, in an average time of 7.1 +/- 4.9 years after the first procedure. Conclusion: In our experience, the long-term results of the surgical treatment of Ebstein's anomaly demonstrate an acceptable survival rate and a low incidence of reinterventions.
- Post-cardiotomy ECMO in pediatric and congenital heart surgery: impact of team training and equipment in the results(2015) MIANA, Leonardo Augusto; CANEO, Luiz Fernando; TANAMATI, Carla; PENHA, Juliano Gomes; GUIMARAES, Vanessa Alves; MIURA, Nana; GALAS, Filomena Regina Barbosa Gomes; JATENE, Marcelo BiscegliIntroduction: Post-cardiotomy myocardial dysfunction requiring mechanical circulatory support occurs in about 0.5% of cases. In our environment, the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation has been increasing in recent years. Objective: To evaluate the impact of investment in professional training and improvement of equipment in the rate of weaning from extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and survival. Methods: A retrospective study. Fifty-six pediatric and/or congenital heart patients underwent post-cardiotomy extracorporeal membrane oxygenation at our institution between November 1999 and July 2014. We divided this period into two phases: phase I, 36 cases (before the structuring of the extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation program) and phase II, 20 cases (after the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation program implementation) with investment in training and equipment). Were considered as primary outcomes: extracorporeal membrane oxygenation weaning and survival to hospital discharge. The results in both phases were compared using Chi-square test. To identify the impact of the different variables we used binary logistic regression analysis. Results: Groups were comparable. In phase I, 9 patients (25%) were weaned from extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, but only 2 (5.5%) were discharged. In phase II, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation was used in 20 patients, weaning was possible in 17 (85%), with 9 (45%) hospital discharges (P<0.01). When the impact of several variables on discharge and weaning of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation was analyzed, we observe that phase II was an independent predictor of better results (P<0.001) and need for left cavities drainage was associated with worse survival (P=0.045). Conclusion: The investment in professional training and improvement of equipment significantly increased extracorporeal membrane oxygenation results.
- Prognostic value of the preoperative neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio in patients undergoing the bidirectional Glenn procedure(2020) MANUEL, Valdano; MIANA, Leonardo A.; GUERREIRO, Gustavo P.; TENORIO, Davi F.; TURQUETTO, Aida; PENHA, Juliano G.; MASSOTI, Maria R.; TANAMATI, Carla; JUNIOR, Antonio P. F.; CANEO, Luiz F.; JATENE, Fabio B.; JATENE, Marcelo B.Introduction The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been associated with worse outcomes in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Little is known about this association in the pediatric population who require surgery for congenital heart defects, especially in patients with a single ventricle (SV). Objective To analyze the association of the preoperative NLR with outcomes in patients undergoing the bidirectional Glenn procedure. Methods This study involved a retrospective cohort analysis of 141 consecutive patients with SV undergoing the bidirectional Glenn procedure between January 2011 and December 2017 in two centers. The preoperative NLR was included in the last hemogram test before surgery. According to the NLR level, the patients were divided into group I (NLR < 1), group II (NLR between 1 and 2), and group III (NLR > 2). The primary endpoint was total hospital length of stay (LOS), and secondary endpoints were mechanical ventilation (MV) time, intensive care unit (ICU) LOS, ventricular dysfunction, complications, and middle-term mortality. Results The average follow-up duration was 48 months. There were 61, 47, and 33 patients in groups I, II, and III, respectively. Patients in group III exhibited an increased risk of prolonged total hospital LOS (P = .00). An increase in MV time (P = .03) and ICU LOS (P = .02) was also observed in this group, and these patients experienced greater mortality in 24 months following the surgery (P = .03). There was no association between the NLR and ventricular dysfunction (P = .26) and complications (P = .46). Conclusion A high preoperative NLR was associated with worse outcomes in patients with SV physiology undergoing the bidirectional Glenn procedure.
- Palliative Senning in the Treatment of Congenital Heart Disease with Severe Pulmonary Hypertension(2015) PENHA, Juliano Gomes; ZORZANELLI, Leina; BARBOSA-LOPES, Antonio Augusto; ATIK, Edimar; MIANA, Leonardo Augusto; TANAMATI, Carla; CANEO, Luiz Fernando; MIURA, Nana; AIELLO, Vera Demarchi; JATENE, Marcelo BiscegliBackground: Transposition of the great arteries (TGA) is the most common cyanotic cardiopathy, with an incidence ranging between 0.2 and 0.4 per 1000 live births. Many patients not treated in the first few months of life may progress with severe pulmonary vascular disease. Treatment of these patients may include palliative surgery to redirect the flow at the atrial level. Objective: Report our institutional experience with the palliative Senning procedure in children diagnosed with TGA and double outlet right ventricle with severe pulmonary vascular disease, and to evaluate the early and late clinical progression of the palliative Senning procedure. Method: Retrospective study based on the evaluation of medical records in the period of 1991 to 2014. Only patients without an indication for definitive surgical treatment of the cardiopathy due to elevated pulmonary pressure were included. Results: After one year of follow-up there was a mean increase in arterial oxygen saturation from 62.1% to 92.5% and a mean decrease in hematocrit from 49.4% to 36.3%. Lung histological analysis was feasible in 16 patients. In 8 patients, pulmonary biopsy grades 3 and 4 were evidenced. Conclusion: The palliative Senning procedure improved arterial oxygen saturation, reduced polycythemia, and provided a better quality of life for patients with TGA with ventricular septal defect, severe pulmonary hypertension, and poor prognosis.
