Bridge to transplantation with long-term mechanical assist device in adults after the Mustard procedure
Original language description
BACKGROUND: There is limited clinical experience with bridging to transplant with a left ventricular assist device (VAD) in patients with previously palliated transposition of great arteries. METHODS: Five adult patients presenting with systemic right ventricular failure 30 years after a Mustard operation were implanted with a HeartMate II VAD. The implant was completed using standard procedures with only minor modifications to accommodate right ventricular cannulation. RESULTS: All 5 patients were men,with a mean age of 31.5 +/- 1.8 years and a median time since Mustard operation of 30 (range 28 to 32) years. All patients had sternal closure on Post-operative Day (POD) 1, and 2 patients required additional re-operation for bleeding. One patient required temporary support of the non-systemic ventricle. The mean duration of VAD support was 284 177 days; 3 patients underwent heart transplant and 2 died on PODs 502 and 34, respectively. Both deaths were due to progressive heart failure a
