【 摘 要 】
ObjectivesPulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries (PA/VSD/MAPCAs) is a relatively rare, complex, and heterogeneous congenital heart disease. As one of the effective treatments, the midline unifocalization strategy still remains complicated and challenging due to the diverse forms of MAPCAs and pulmonary arteries. The purpose of this study is to summarize our experience of a novel three-dimensional (3D) visualized operative procedure in the single-stage complete repair with unifocalization and to clarify the benefits it may bring to us.MethodsWe described our experience of the 3D visualized operative procedure such as 3D printing, virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR) technology in patients with PA/VSD/MAPCAs who underwent a single-stage complete repair with unifocalization. The data from the patients who underwent this procedure (3D group) and those who underwent the conventional procedure (conventional group) were compared.ResultsThe conventional and 3D groups included 11 patients from September 2011 to December 2017 and 9 from January 2018 to March 2021, respectively. The baseline characteristics such as age, body weight, preoperative saturation, the anatomy of the pulmonary arteries and MAPCAs, the Nakata index, and TNPAI had no statistical significance. All 9 patients in the 3D group were operated only through a median sternotomy, while 8 cases (72.7%) in the conventional group needed another posterolateral thoracotomy (p = 0.001). In the 3D group, the CPB time was shorter (93.2 ± 63.8 vs. 145.1 ± 68.4 min, p = 0.099), and the median pre-CPB time per MAPCAs was significantly shorter [25.7 (14.0, 46.3) vs. 65 (41.3, 75.0) min, p = 0.031]. There was no early death in the 3D group, while there were 3 in the conventional group (0 vs. 27.3%, p = 0.218).ConclusionThe novel 3D visualized operative procedure may help improve the performance of the single-stage complete repair with the midline unifocalization of PA/VSD/MAPCAs and help shorten the dissecting time of the MAPCAs. It may promote the routine and successful application of this strategy in more centers.
