    Abstract: Anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (AAOCA) encompasses a wide morphologic spectrum, which has impeded consensus regarding indications for the diverse repair strategies. We constructed a profile of current surgical techniques and explore their application to morphologic variants. Methods: Patients 〈 30 years old (n = 113) with isolated AAOCA who underwent operations at 29 Congenital Heart Surgeons Society (CHSS) institutions from 1998 to 2012 were identified from the CHSS AAOCA Registry. Operative findings were related to surgical techniques at index repairs by cross-tabulation. Results: Anomalous origin of the left main or left anterior descending coronary artery was present in 33 (29%) patients and of the right coronary artery in 78 (69%) patients; 2 arteries originated directly above the commissure between the left and right sinuses. There were 101 (89%) interarterial and intramural (IA/IM) arteries, 10 (9%) were interarterial but not intramural (IA/NIM) and 2 (2%) were neither interarterial nor intramural. Intramural arteries were unroofed in 100 (88%) operations, usually with intimal tacking after incision (n = 47) or excision (n = 25) of the common wall. Coronary reimplantation (n = 11), pulmonary artery relocation (n = 7; 5 for IA/NIM), simple ostioplasty (without unroofing; n = 3), coronary artery bypass grafting (n = 2), and ostial window (n = 1) were less common. In 37 (33%) operations, a valvar commissure was taken down; 33 were resuspended. Conclusion: Current surgical repair of AAOCA is individualized to morphology, particularly the presence of intramural and/or interarterial segments. This report is foundational for future planned CHSS studies that will examine interventional and noninterventional outcomes and ultimately guide management of AAOCA.

    Anomalous Aortic Origin of a Coronary Artery : A Report From the Congenital Heart Surgeons Society Registry

    Abstract: Anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (AAOCA) is a common congenital heart lesion that may be rarely associated with myocardial ischemia and sudden death in the young. Evidence-based criteria for managing young patients with AAOCA are lacking. The Congenital Heart Surgeons Society (CHSS) established a multicenter registry of patients with AAOCA aged ≤30 years to develop these criteria. Methods: All institutional members of the CHSS are eligible to enroll patients. Patients were enrolled retrospectively if diagnosis of AAOCA occurred between January 1, 1998, and January 20, 2009, and prospectively from January 20, 2009 forward. The first phase of analysis explored possible associations between demographics, symptoms, coronary anatomy, and management using correlation analysis and logistic regression. Results: As of June 2012, 198 patients were enrolled from CHSS member institutions (median age at diagnosis = 10.2 years; 64% male). Data were extracted from clinical records. Fifty-four percent were symptomatic at presentation (most commonly chest pain, N = 78). The AAOCA was diagnosed at autopsy in two patients who presented with sudden death (one with anomalous aortic origin of the left coronary artery [AAOLCA]; one with a single ostium above a commissure giving rise to both left and right coronary arteries). Imaging reports documented anomalous aortic origin of the right coronary artery (AAORCA) in 144 patients, AAOLCA in 51 patients, and AAOLCA/AAORCA in 1 patient. Surgery or autopsy without surgery was performed in 106 patients (71 AAORCA [67%] ; 31 AAOLCA [29%]; and 4 AAORCA/AAOLCA [4%] ) at a median age of 12.6 years. Overall, 52% of patients with AAORCA versus 67% with AAOLCA had surgery. Most surgical operative reports described an intramural segment of the coronary artery with anomalous origin. Surgery correlated with symptoms, older age, and presence of an intramural segment in the setting of AAOLCA. Conclusions: Management decisions, including surgical referral, are associated with patient symptoms and coronary morphology. Information derived from annual follow-up of surgically and nonsurgically managed patients enrolled in the registry will eventually form the basis for development of evidence-based protocols to address the spectrum of risk and inform clinical decision making in this heterogeneous population of young patients.

    Abstract: The association of dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVF) in children with Vein of Galen malformation (VGM) has recently been reported for the first time. In a larger series of cases treated with transarterial NBCA embolization, 30% had DAVF. We wanted to analyze the development of DAVF in our cohort of children with VGM and to evaluate whether their occurrence depends on different treatment timing and embolic materials. We analyzed 43 VGM cases treated with a combined transarterial and transvenous approach between 2003 and 2016. In our early series until 2011, we used coils solely in 21 children. Since 2012, 22 children were treated with the combination of coils and Onyx. In the early series treated with coils solely, no case presented initially with or developed DAVF over time on follow-up angiograms. In our recent series we found four cases (9%) with DAVF. In two patients (5%), DAVF were found on the initial angiogram. Both patients presented at our department at age 〉 2 years and were not treated elsewhere before. One patient (2%) presented at our department with too proximal occlusion of arterial feeders performed at another institution before. Only one patient (2%) developed DAVF in our department after the transarterial use of Onyx. Interestingly, this child did not develop DAVF as long as we used coils solely and his DAVF was localized exactly where an Onyx cast was identified. In conclusion, delayed and incomplete treatment may have a considerable impact on the occurrence of DAVF in VGM.

    Abstract: Our studies investigated the location of oxytocin receptors in the peripheral trigeminal sensory system and determined their role in trigeminal pain. Methods Oxytocin receptor expression and co-localization with calcitonin gene-related peptide was investigated in rat trigeminal ganglion using immunohistochemistry. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine the effects of facial electrocutaneous stimulation and adjuvant-induced inflammation of the temporomandibular joint on oxytocin receptor expression in the trigeminal ganglion. Finally, the effects of oxytocin on capsaicin-induced calcitonin gene-related peptide release from dural nociceptors were investigated using isolated rat dura mater. Results Oxytocin receptor immunoreactivity was present in rat trigeminal neurons. The vast majority of oxytocin receptor immunoreactive neurons co-expressed calcitonin gene-related peptide. Both electrocutaneous stimulation and adjuvant-induced inflammation led to a rapid upregulation of oxytocin receptor protein expression in trigeminal ganglion neurons. Oxytocin significantly and dose-dependently decreased capsaicin-induced calcitonin gene-related peptide release from dural nociceptors. Conclusion Oxytocin receptor expression in calcitonin gene-related peptide containing trigeminal ganglion neurons, and the blockade of calcitonin gene-related peptide release from trigeminal dural afferents suggests that activation of these receptors may provide therapeutic benefit in patients with migraine and other primary headache disorders.

    Abstract: During the 4-year time interval of 2005 through 2008, the Society of Thoracic Surgeons Congenital Heart Surgery Database documented data about 2882 operations to repair atrioventricular (AV) canal defects: partial, 623 (21.5%); intermediate, 342 (11.8%);. complete, 1917 (66.3%). Mean age at complete repair (years) was as follows: partial, 6.1; intermediate, 2.9; complete, 0.6. Median age at complete repair (years) was as follows: partial, 2.6; intermediate, 0.9; complete, 0.4. Down syndrome was present in 1767 patients (61.1%). Debanding of the pulmonary artery was rarely performed: partial, 1 (0.2%); intermediate, 0 (0.0%); complete, 66 (3.4%). Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest was rarely used: partial, 6 (1.0%); intermediate, 5 (1.5%); complete, 52 (2.7%). Discharge mortality was low: partial, 2 (0.3%); intermediate, 3 (0.9%); complete, 38 (2.0%). Atrioventricular block requiring permanent pacemaker occurred but was uncommon: partial, 6 (1.0%); intermediate, 2 (0.6%); complete, 29 (1.5%). Unplanned reoperation prior to hospital discharge occurred in 3.9% of complete AV canal repairs. The sternum was left open in 3.0% of complete AV canal repairs. Postoperative cardiac arrest occurred in 1.9% of complete AV canal repairs. Mean postoperative length of stay (days) was as follows: partial, 5.2; intermediate, 7; complete, 13.1. Median postoperative length of stay (days) was as follows: partial, 4; intermediate, 4; complete, 7. This review of data from the Society of Thoracic Surgeons Congenital Heart Surgery Database allows for unique documentation of patterns of practice and outcomes. From this review, we learned that 98% to 99% of patients survive complete repair of AV canal and 96% to 97% survive complete repair of AV canal with no major complications.

    Abstract: According to The International Society for Nomenclature of Pediatric and Congenital Heart Disease (ISNPCHD), “Heterotaxy is synonymous with ‘visceral heterotaxy’ and ‘heterotaxy syndrome’. Heterotaxy is defined as an abnormality where the internal thoraco-abdominal organs demonstrate abnormal arrangement across the left-right axis of the body. By convention, heterotaxy does not include patients with either the expected usual or normal arrangement of the internal organs along the left-right axis, also known as ‘situs solitus’, or patients with complete mirror-imaged arrangement of the internal organs along the left-right axis also known as `situs inversus’.” or patients with complete mirror-image arrangement of the internal organs along the left–right axis, also known as situs inversus. The purpose of this article is to review the data about heterotaxy in the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) Congenital Heart Surgery Database. The investigators examined all index operations in the STS Congenital Heart Surgery Database over 12 years from January 1, 1998 to December 31, 2009, inclusive. This analysis resulted in a cohort of 77 153 total index operations. Of these, 1505 operations (1.95%) were performed in patients with heterotaxy. Of the 1505 index operations performed in patients with heterotaxy, 1144 were in patients with asplenia and 361 were in patients with polysplenia. In every STS -EACTS Congenital Heart Surgery Mortality Category, discharge mortality is higher in patients with heterotaxy compared with patients without heterotaxy (EACTS = European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery). Discharge mortality after systemic to pulmonary artery shunt is 6.6% in a cohort of all single-ventricle patients except those with heterotaxy, whereas it is 10.8% in single-ventricle patients with heterotaxy. Discharge mortality after Fontan is 1.8% in a cohort of all single-ventricle patients except those with heterotaxy, whereas it is 4.2% in single-ventricle patients with heterotaxy. The STS Congenital Heart Surgery Database is largest congenital heart surgery database in North America. This review of data from the STS Congenital Heart Surgery Database allows for unique documentation of practice patterns and outcomes. From this analysis, it is clear that heterotaxy is a challenging problem with increased discharge mortality in most subgroups.

    Abstract: STAT Mortality Categories (developed 2009) stratify congenital heart surgery procedures into groups of increasing mortality risk to characterize case mix of congenital heart surgery providers. This update of the STAT Mortality Score and Categories is empirically based for all procedures and reflects contemporary outcomes. Methods: Cardiovascular surgical operations in the Society of Thoracic Surgeons Congenital Heart Surgery Database (January 1, 2010 – June 30, 2017) were analyzed. In this STAT 2020 Update of the STAT Mortality Score and Categories, the risk associated with a specific combination of procedures was estimated under the assumption that risk is determined by the highest risk individual component procedure. Operations composed of multiple component procedures were eligible for unique STAT Scores when the statistically estimated mortality risk differed from that of the highest risk component procedure. Bayesian modeling accounted for small denominators. Risk estimates were rescaled to STAT 2020 Scores between 0.1 and 5.0. STAT 2020 Category assignment was designed to minimize within-category variation and maximize between-category variation. Results: Among 161,351 operations at 110 centers (19,090 distinct procedure combinations), 235 types of single or multiple component operations received unique STAT 2020 Scores. Assignment to Categories resulted in the following distribution: STAT 2020 Category 1 includes 59 procedure codes with model-based estimated mortality 0.2% to 1.3%; Category 2 includes 73 procedure codes with mortality estimates 1.4% to 2.9%; Category 3 includes 46 procedure codes with mortality estimates 3.0% to 6.8%; Category 4 includes 37 procedure codes with mortality estimates 6.9% to 13.0%; and Category 5 includes 17 procedure codes with mortality estimates 13.5% to 38.7%. The number of procedure codes with empirically derived Scores has grown by 58% (235 in STAT 2020 vs 148 in STAT 2009). Of the 148 procedure codes with empirically derived Scores in 2009, approximately one-half have changed STAT Category relative to 2009 metrics. The New STAT 2020 Scores and Categories demonstrated good discrimination for predicting mortality in an independent validation sample (July 1, 2017-June 30, 2019; sample size 46,933 operations at 108 centers) with C-statistic = 0.791 for STAT 2020 Score and 0.779 for STAT 2020 Category. Conclusions: The updated STAT metrics reflect contemporary practice and outcomes. New empirically based STAT 2020 Scores and Category designations are assigned to a larger set of procedure codes, while accounting for risk associated with multiple component operations. Updating STAT metrics based on contemporary outcomes facilitates accurate assessment of case mix.
