Frequency, Predictors, and Neurologic Outcomes of Vaso-occlusive Strokes Associated With Cardiac Surgery in Children

Abstract: The frequency of vaso-occlusive stroke in children with congenital heart disease undergoing cardiac surgery was 5.4 cases per 1000 children. Age, duration of bypass, and reoperation may be associated with stroke risk.

“…166 More than half of all children who experienced an arterial ischemic stroke in the perioperative period had persistent sensory or motor impairments, with hemiparesis being the most common finding. 78 These studies suggest that some degree of fine or gross motor impairment is common in survivors with complex CHD. Screening for fine and gross motor skill impairments in children with complex CHD should follow the current AAP guidelines 19 for the general pediatric population or be at the discretion of the medical care provider.…”

“…These central nervous system events may contribute to the presence of acute arterial ischemic strokes or cerebral venous sinus thromboses or to the increased prevalence of periventricular leukomalacia in neonates and children after surgery for CHD. [77][78][79] In addition, for newborns with complex CHD who underwent cardiac surgery during the neonatal period or early infancy, subsequent operations with CPB during infancy are associated with decreased mental and psychomotor developmental indices at 1 year of age. 80 …”

“…3 Almost one third of pediatric patients with acute ischemic stroke have CHD. 4 Risk factors for stroke in this group include a prothrombotic condition, a mechanical valve and an acute illness at the time of the stroke. 5 The risk of peri-operative stroke increases in those patients with CHD who are older at the time of surgery and in those who undergo reoperation or have a longer duration of cardiopulmonary bypass.…”

“…or via a systemic venous clot through a right-to-left shunt from a septal defect, patent foramen ovale (PFO) or other source. These can be procedure-related secondary to cardiac surgery or catheterbased interventions [23,24]. Although surgical repair of the defect significantly lowers the recurrence risk, the risk remains nonetheless persistent for a few years [24], hence the authors tend to maintain most children safely on at least anti-platelet therapy for at least one year (Class IIa, level of evidence C) [2,3], although this is controversial.…”
