“…We did not identify any significant differences between the conventional method and the sutureless technique because there were only four cases in which the sutureless technique was used. Although there are reports that the sutureless technique is less common in postoperative PVS than the conventional methods, there were also reports that there was no significant difference between them . Our hospital has very limited experience with the sutureless technique; thus, it is difficult to assess its usefulness.…”

“…Nevertheless, isolated TAPVC may be associated with higher mortality and morbidity rates than other CHDs because obstructive flows often require emergency operation within days after birth. In addition, postoperative pulmonary vein obstruction has an important effect on prognosis . The purpose of this study was to confirm the outcome of patients with isolated TAPVC who had been treated within the last 12 years and to analyze the prognostic factors.…”

Background and Aim of the Study: Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is a rare cyanotic congenital heart defect. This study aimed to evaluate the outcome of isolated TAPVC repairs and the prognoses of affected patients in the last 12 years at a single center. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 51 patients who underwent isolated TAPVC repair from 2007 to 2018. Results: The median age at operation was 19 days, and the median body weight was 3.3 kg. Thirteen (25.5%) patients had emergency operations, and the median followup period was 29.54 ± 36.77 months. Early mortality was noted in five patients and late mortality was noted in one patient. Pulmonary vein stenosis was observed in 22 patients within 3 to 6 months after the operation, and six patients required reoperation or transcatheter interventions. Low birth weight, small left atrial volume, long operation time, and preoperative heart failure were identified as risk factors for mortality.Conclusions: Isolated TAPVC can rapidly lead to hemodynamic instability during the neonatal period and is associated with high mortality rates. Increasing the prenatal diagnosis rate and stabilizing the patients' condition before the operation are considered important for improving the surgical outcome.

“…Some surgeons have adopted primary sutureless repair to avoid postoperative pulmonary vein stenosis in selected cases such as patients with a single ventricle or small pulmonary veins [2,3]. According to some reports, primary sutureless repair showed lower incidence of postoperative pulmonary vein stenosis as compared with conventional repair [6,7].…”

We used a suture-and-open technique with a biatrial incision for primary sutureless repair of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC). With this technique, the common pulmonary venous sinus and its branching pulmonary veins are opened after completion of suturing of the left atrial incision to the pericardium around the common pulmonary venous sinus and its branching veins. The technique allows the primary sutureless repair of TAPVC to be done in a less bloody field under full-flow cardiopulmonary bypass. We have performed this technique in our recent 5 consecutive TAPVC patients without significant complications.
