Re-do Pulmonary Valve Replacement with Concomitant Aortic Valve Replacement in a Post-surgical Patient of Tetralogy of Fallot- A Case Report
Abstracts:
The management of Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), one of the
commonest congenital anomalies, has advanced rapidly and
excellent long-term survival were observed. Residual defects
like pulmonary valve regurgitations are identified in an
increased number as long-term survival increased and
requirement for intervention increased worldwide. Although
rare in our setting, we performed aortic valve replacement
(AVR) with re-do pulmonary valve replacement surgery on a
21-year-old, non-diabetic, hypertensive young male with the
diagnosis of moderate to severe aortic regurgitation with
stuck pulmonary (mechanical) valve, with status-post
intracardiac repair (ICR) for Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) with
aortic valve repair (AVRe) with pulmonary valve replacement
(PVR) with closure of ventricular septal defect (VSD). His
postoperative recovery was satisfactory and he was discharged
symptom free on 6th postoperative day.
