Journal Title: Dicle Tıp Dergisi - Year 2014, Vol 41, Issue 3
Abstract
Objective:We aimed to discuss the treatment results of the patients with congenital cardiovascular diseases who were operated in our clinic Methods:Between 2000-2014, there were 78 patients with diagnosis of congenital heart disease, who were treated at Dicle University Cardiovascular Surgery Department, were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were separated into two groups as under the age of 16 (Group I) and older than 16 years (Group II). The demographic characteristics of both groups, frequency of observed pathology and treatment outcomes were compared. Results:There were 35 patients at group I, 43 patients at group II. 17 (49%) cases were male, 18 (51%) cases were female and the mean age was 6.18 at group I. Seventeen patients had atrial septal defect (ASD) in Group I. One pulmonary stenosis (PS), 1 cleft mitrale, 1 patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), and 1 total anomalous of pulmonary venous return (TAPVR) anomaly was accompanied to these ASD pathologies. Eleven patient had PDA, 7 had ventricular septal defect (VSD), 1 had Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) in other patients group I. Nine of cases were male (21%) , 34 of cases (79%) were female, mean age was 22.47 at group II. Thirty six ASD was detected in Group II. Two of ASD were accompanied with pulmonary stenosis, one with cleft mitrale and 2 with PDA. Three VSD, 2 tetralogy of fallot (TOF), 2 PDA were detected in other patients in group II. One patient died at early postoperative period. Conclusion:In the group of children age, 48.5% of patients were male. The group of over 16 age , %79 of patient were male. At the group of children age, the common pathology was ASD however PDA is the common pathology at second group. While more complex anomalies were detected in the first group,at the second group rather non complex isolated anomalies as ASD were detected Key words: congenital heart disease, surgery, clinic outcomes
