선천성 복잡 심기형에서의 Lecompte 술식의 유용성 및 임상적용에 관한 연구

Background: This study is to evaluate the effectiveness and application of Lecompte procedure as a treatment for various complex cardiac anomalies with pulmonary outflow tract obstruction. Methods: Between July 1988 and December 1997, 44 patients underwent Lecompte procedure in Seoul National University Children's Hospital. The male to female ratio was 24 to 20 and the mean age was 29.2 months(range, 3 to 83). Of these patients, 28(63.6%) had transposition of great arteries with ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis(or pulmonary atresia), 14(31.8%) had double outlet right ventricle with pulmonary stenosis(or pulmonary atresia), and so on. The principles of the technique are 1) extension of the ventricular septal defect or conal resection, 2) construction of a intracardiac tunnel connecting the left ventricle to the aorta, and 3) direct connection, without a prosthetic conduit, of the pulmonary trunk to the right ventricle. Results: There were 3 in-hospital deaths and their causes were sustained hypoxia, myocardial failure, and sepsis, respectively. There was 1 late death due to sepsis. Reoperations were performed in 6 patients who had pulmonary outflow tract obstructions(4 cases), residual muscular ventricular septal defect(1 case), and recurrent septic vegetation(1 case). The cumulative survival rates by the Kaplan-Meier method were 92.7%, 92.7%, and 92.7% at 1, 2, and over 4 years. The reoperation free survival rates were 92.7%, 92.7%, and 70.2% at 1, 3, and over 5 years. Among the risk factors for the operative death, aortic cross clamping time had statistical significance(p0.05). Conclusions: Our review suggests that Lecompte procedure is an effective treatment modality for various complex cardiac anomalies with pulmonary outflow tract obstruction. Repair in early age is possible and the rates of mortality and morbidity are also acceptable. 배경: 이 연구는 폐동맥 유출로 협착을 가진 다양한 복잡 심기형 환아에서 시행한 Lecompte 술식의 효과와 임상 적용에 관한 검증을 위한 것이다. 방법: 1988년 7월부터 1997년 12월까지 서울대학교 어린이 병원 흉부외과에서는 44명의 환아에 대하여 상기 술식을 시행하였다. 남녀비는 24대20이었으며 연령분포는 3개월에서 83개월까지로 평균 29.2개월이었다. 이 중, 심실 중격 결손과 폐동맥 협착(또는 폐쇄)을 동반한 대혈관 전위가 28명으로 가장 많았고(63.6%), 그 외 14명(31.8%)의 폐동맥 협착(또는 폐쇄)을 동반한 양 대혈관 우심실 기시 등이 있었다. 술식의 기본 원칙은 1)심실 중격 결손 부위의 확장 또는 누두부 중격 절제, 2)좌심실-대동맥 간의 심장내 도관 형성, 3)인공 심장외 도관을
