The extracardiac total cavopulmonary connection is the final stage of palliation of hearts with single-ventricle physiology. Protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) and plastic bronchitis are catastrophic sequale that may occur in patients with the total cavopulmonary connection and may complicate the early and long-term follow-up. Here we report on the successful treatment of a 16-year boy affected by PLE by percutaneous closure of a persistent anterograde pulmonary blood flow by using an 8-mm Amplatzer VSD Occluder.
体外全腔肺连接术是单心室生理心脏姑息治疗的最后阶段。蛋白丢失性肠病(PLE)和塑料支气管病是全腔肺连接术后可能发生的灾难性并发症,并可能使患者的早期和长期随访复杂化。在此,我们报告了一例 16 岁男孩 PLE 的成功治疗,采用 8mm 的 Amplatzer VSD 封堵器经皮封堵持续的顺行肺血流。
