Procedimento de Lecompte para a correção de transposição das grandes artérias, associada à comunicação interventricular e obstrução de via de saída do ventrículo esquerdo Lecompte procedure for correction of the transposition of the great arteries associated with ventricular septal defect and left ventricle outflow tract obstruction
2006
Objective: To evaluate the Lecompte procedure used for the correction of transposition of the great arteries (TGA) associated with ventricular septal defect (VSD) and left ventricle outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) and to present the intermediate and long-term results of the surgery. Methods: Between February 1994 and July 2005, seven patients with ages between 2 and 8 years (median: 3.0) suffering from TGA, VSD and LVOTO underwent corrective surgery. In six cases, the Lecompte procedure was performed. This technique consists in right ventriculotomy, extensive resection of the conal septum and construction of a ventricular tunnel connecting the left ventricle to the aorta (LV-Ao). The remaining case presented with obstruction of a valvular prosthesis implanted between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery (RV-PA) and RV failure. This case
