Published: January 2011

AbstractObjectives:The aim of this article is to report a 16‐year experience with percutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty (BAVP) in newborns and young infants up to 3 months of age in a tertiary care cardiac reference center in a developing country and to determine its value in postponing open heart surgery. Background:Congenital aortic stenosis (AS) is a potentially life threatening disorder. BAVP and surgical procedures have similar short and medium‐term efficacy. Methods:Thirty‐one consecutive newborns and young infants with critical AS underwent BAVP in our department from 1991 to 2007. Mean patient age at time of the procedure was 22 days (range 2–92 days) and mean weight was 3,310 g (1,840–4,400 g). Results:There was a significant reduction in mean Doppler‐derived peak gradient across the aortic valve immediately after the procedure (75.1 ± 22 versus 32.2 ± 13.02, P < 0.001), and this finding was maintained throughout follow‐up. Since 2003, when the carotid approach became routine practice, no major vascular complications were observed. Mean time of follow‐up was 81 months (5 days–196 months) with only two deaths (7.4%). Only 24% patients required surgical reintervention on the aortic valve during follow‐up. Survival free from aortic valve surgery was 80% at 24 months, 66% at 63 months, and 50% at 80 months. Conclusion:Percutaneous intervention for relief of critical aortic stenosis in newborns in a tertiary center of a developing country is safe and has excellent short and long‐term results comparable to other centers throughout the world. © 2011 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

AbstractIntroduction: Closed‐chest access and closure of direct cardiac punctures may enable a range of therapeutic procedures. We evaluate the safety and feasibility of closing percutaneous direct ventricular access sites using a commercial collagen‐based femoral artery closure device. Methods: Yorkshire swine underwent percutaneous transthoracic left ventricular access (n = 13). The access port was closed using a commercial collagen‐based vascular closure device (Angio‐Seal, St. Jude Medical) with or without prior separation of the pericardial layers by instillation of fluid into the pericardial space (“permissive pericardial tamponade”). After initial nonsurvival feasibility experiments (n = 6); animals underwent 1‐week (n = 3) or 6‐week follow‐up (n = 4). Results: In naïve animals, the collagen plug tended to deploy outside the parietal pericardium, where it failed to accomplish hemostasis. “Permissive pericardial tamponade” was created under MRI, and accomplished early hemostasis by allowing the collagen sponge to seat on the epicardial surface inside the pericardium. After successful closure, six of seven animals accumulated a large pericardial effusion 5 ± 1 days after closure. Despite percutaneous drainage during 6‐week follow‐up, the large pericardial effusion recurred in half, and was lethal in one. Conclusions: A commercial collagen‐based vascular closure device may achieve temporary but not durable hemostasis when closing a direct left ventricular puncture port, but only after intentional pericardial separation. These insights may contribute to development of a superior device solution. Elective clinical application of this device to close apical access ports should be avoided. © 2011 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
