INTRODUCTION
• Cyanotic congenital heart disease {CCHD}
encompasses a group of congenital heart defects that
lead to a low level of oxygen in the blood, resulting
in cyanosis{ a bluish tint in the skin, lips, and nails}.
This happens because these defects allow
deoxygenated {blue} blood to bypass the lugs,
mixing with oxygenated blood, or because blood has
difficulty reaching the lugs for oxygenation.
TYPES OF CYANOTIC
CONGENITAL HEART DISEASE
Tetralogy of Fallot {TOF}
Transposition of the Great Arteries {TGA}
Tricuspid Atresia
Total Anomalus Pulmonary Venous Connection
{TAPCV}
Truncus Arteriosus
Tetralogy of Fallot
Tetralogy of fallot {TOF} is the most common type of
cyanotic congenital heart disease. This condition is
characterized by the combination of four defects:
Ventricular Septal defect
Pulmonary Stenosis
Dextroposition of the aorta so that it overrides the
ventricular septum
Right ventricular hypertrophy
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
• The initial defect in TOF is a narrowing of the right ventricular
outflow tract into the pulmonary artery {Pulmonary Stenosis}.
• Prevents deoxygenated blood from entering the pulmonary circuit.
• In response to this outflow obstruction RV pressure is high as the
LV, a right to left shunt appear{VSD}.
• VSD allows shunting of the blood between ventricles.
CONT
• The aorta overrides the VSD
• Mixed blood immediately exist the heart
• Severity and clinical consequences of TOF is the
degree of right ventricular outflow obstruction.
Clinical features
• Cyanosis, tet spell
• Dyspnea
• Clubbing of the fingers and toes
• Slow weight gain {Poor growth}
Diagnosis
• History taking
• Physical examination to elicit
• Continuous murmur
• Chest X ray (IOC)
Investigation
• ECG
• ECHO
Management
• Treatment of TOF depends on the severity of the
RVOT obstruction. Infants with severe tetralogy
require urgent medical treatment and surgical
intervention in the neonatal period. Therapy is aimed
at providing an immediate increase in pulmonary
blood flow to prevent the sequelae of severe hypoxia.
• Pott’s procedure: the upper descending aorta is
anastomosed with the left pulmonary artery.
CONT
• Brock’s procedure: Pulmonary valvotomy done to
correct PS
The IV administration of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1 ;
0.01-0.20μg/kg/min)
Complications
• Bacterial endocarditis
• Seizure
• Brain Thrombosis
• Brain abscess
• Death
TRICUSPID ATRESIA
Congenital absence of the tricuspid valve is called tricuspid
atresia.
There is an absence of right atrioventricular connection.
The right ventricle is hypoplastic {undersized or absent}.
This condition is associated with PS and PD.
There is complete mixing of unoxygenated and oxygenated
blood in the left Atrium and so have a mandatory ASD.
A PDA or VSD is necessary for PBF and survival.
• Pulmonary blood flow (and thus the degree of cyanosis) depends on the size
of the VSD and the presence and severity of any associated pulmonic
stenosis.
• In patients with tricuspid atresia and transposition of the great
arteries (TGA) , LV blood flows directly into the pulmonary
artery, whereas systemic blood must traverse the VSD and
right ventricle to reach the aorta.
• In these patients, pulmonary blood flow is usually massively
increased and heart failure develops early. If the VSD is
restrictive, aortic blood flow may be compromised.
• Coarctation of the aorta is often noted in this setting.
Clinical Manifestation
• Cyanosis
• Difficulty in breathing
• Clubbing of fingers and toes
• Polycythemia
Diagnosis
• Chest X ray
• ECHO
• ECG
Management
• Initial Management
Oxygen therapy
Administration of prostaglandins E1
Surgical management {BT shunt, Glenn, and Fontan
procedures}
Complications
Arrhythmias
Heart Failure
Thromboembolism
Transposition of the Great
Arteries
• Transposition of the great arteries, or vessels, a common cyanotic
congenital anomaly, accounts for approximately 5% of all congenital
heart disease.
• Complete separation of systemic and pulmonary circulation
• In this anomaly, the systemic veins return normally to the right
atrium and the pulmonary veins return to the left atrium.
• The connections between the atria and ventricles are also normal
(atrioventricular concordance ).
• The aorta arises from the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery
from the left ventricle
• Now survival depends on mixing of blood with PDA
Clinical Manifestation
• Time of presentation depends on weather ventricular septum is
intact or VSD is present.
• Patient with TGA with intact septum are cyanotic at birth with
CHF occuring in first week of life.
• Patients with TGA with VSD presents with mild cyanosis and
CHF occur in 6-8weeks ( or 4-10 weeks).
• Cyanosis
• Tachypnoea
• hypoxemia
DIAGNOSIS
• Clinical Presentation
• Physical Examination
Investigations
• ECHO
• ECG
• ABG
• Chest X-ray
Management
Medical Management
• PGE1 like Alprostadil administration which will keep the
Ductus Arteriosus (DA) open temporarily ( transient
improvement)
Surgical management
• Ballon artrial septostomy- emergency procedure
• Definitive surgery : arterial switch operation or JATENE
REPAIR
Complications
• Hypoxemia
• Acidosis
• Heart Failure
• Pulmonary Hypertention
• Arrhythmias
• Death
Total anomalous pulmonary
venous connection (TAPVC)
• Pulmonary veins instead of draining into left atrium,
drain into either
• Superior Vena Cava
• Right Atrium
• Inferior Vena Cava/ Portal vein/ Hepatic veins
TYPES
• Supracardiac TAPVC
• Cardiac TAPVC
• Infracardiac TAPVC
• Supracardiac TAPVC is the most type
• Whereas Infracardiac is the most obstructed type.
Clinical manifestation
Cyanosis
Respiratory Distress {Tachypnea}
Failure to thrive
Diagnosis
• History taking
• Clinical Examination
Cyanosis is always present even with supplemental
oxygen.
Examination may reveal signs of right heart overload,
such as a prominent right ventricular impulse and
possibly a widely spilt and fixed S2{second heart
sound}.
Investigations
• Echocardiography
• ECG
• ECHO
• Chest X-ray
Management
• Oxygen therapy
Inotropic support
Surgical Procedures
Postoperative Management
Long term followup
Complications
• Onset of CCF occurs at 4-10 weeks of life
• Respiratory distress syndrome
• Pneumonia
• Hypoplastic left heart syndrome
TRUNCUS ARTERIOSUS
• In truncus arteriosus, a single arterial trunk (truncus
arteriosus) arises from the heart and supplies the
systemic, pulmonary, and coronary circulations.
• A VSD is always present, with the truncus overriding
the defect and receiving blood from both the right and
left ventricles.
• The number of truncal valve cusps varies from 2 to as
many as 6, and the valve may be stenotic, regurgitant, or
both.
• The pulmonary arteries can arise together from the posterior left
side of the persistent truncus arteriosus and then divide into left
and right pulmonary arteries (type I ).
• In types II and III truncus arteriosus, no main pulmonary
artery is present, and the right and left pulmonary arteries arise
from separate orifices on the posterior (type II ) or lateral (type
III ) aspects of the truncus arteriosus.
• Type IV truncus is a term no longer used because, in this case,
there is no identifiable connection between the heart and
pulmonary arteries, and pulmonary blood flow is derived from
major aortopulmonary collateral arteries arising from the transverse
or descending aorta; this is essentially a form of pulmonary atresia.
Clinical Manifestations
• Bounding pulse
• Cyanosis
• Systolic ejection murmur
• An apical mid-diastolic rumbling murmur
Diagnosis
• ECG
• Echocardiography
• Angiography
• Chest X ray
Treatment
• In the first few weeks of life, many of these infants can
be managed with anticongestive medications, as PVR
falls, heart failure symptoms worsen and surgery is
indicated, usually within the 1st few mo.
• Delay of surgery much beyond this time period may
increase the likelihood of pulmonary vascular disease;
many centers now perform routine neonatal repair at the
time of diagnosis.
• Transcatheter stent-valve.
Complications
• Eisenmenger syndrome
• Heart failure
