Surgery is used to treat a wide range of heart defects. Surgeries may range from the simple, such as closing a hole or tying off a vessel, to the complex, such as switching vessels or repairing heart valves.
Many heart operations are designed to restore the circulation in the heart to as normal a level as possible so a child can live a long and active life.
Complex heart defects require various surgeries to enable the heart to work the best that it can.
Children who have had heart operations will need regular visits to a cardiologist throughout their life.
Why are heart surgeries done?
Many heart defects can be fixed with cardiac catheterization procedures, but some conditions still require surgery.
Heart operations are commonly used to close holes in the heart, such as: -
Atrial septal defect(ASD)
Ventricular septal defect(VSD)
Atrioventricular canal defect
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA)
Aortic stenosis
Pulmonary stenosis
Ebsteins anomaly
Coartication of the aorta
Tetralogy of fallot
Tricuspid atresia
Pulmonary atresia
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome
Transposition of the great arteries
Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC)
Persistent truncus arteriosus
Pediatric heart surgery
Other less-common operations include the Ross procedure (a surgery to replace a blocked or leaking aortic valve), heart transplants and ventricular assist device (VAD) implantation.
Some children are born with complex heart defects that prevent one ventricle of the heart's two ventricles from working, such as hypoplastic left heart syndrome.
These children require a series of operations : -
As a newborn, the child will have the Norwood operation
When the child is about 5 months old, she will have the Glenn shunt procedure
When she is between 3 and 4 years old, she will have the Fontan procedure
