lüll Repair of congenital heart disease: a primer-part 1 Gaca AM; Jaggers JJ; Dudley LT; Bisset GS 3rdRadiology 2008[Jun]; 247 (3): 617-31Advances in the surgical management of congenital heart disease have led to enhanced patient survival and quality of life. Improvements in technology in computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging have resulted in increasing use of cross-sectional imaging in these patients. Perioperative care in these patients requires that radiologists have an understanding of the surgical treatment and the resultant postoperative anatomy. Because many of these patients with treated congenital heart disease are being followed into the 4th and 5th decades of life, this is information that will fall within the domain of the radiologist who deals with adults. This review, which is presented in two parts, covers the major surgical procedures used for the treatment of congenital heart disease, and will be presented in two parts. In part 1, median sternotomy and its complications, palliative procedures, and complex repairs are discussed.|Blood Vessel Prosthesis Implantation/methods[MESH]|Heart Defects, Congenital/diagnosis/*surgery[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Magnetic Resonance Imaging[MESH]|Palliative Care[MESH]|Postoperative Complications[MESH]|Radiography, Thoracic[MESH]|Tomography, X-Ray Computed[MESH] |
