Case histories of 301 patients with complete atrioventricular canal defect
presenting to our institution in infancy between January 1972 and January
1992 were reviewed with the purpose of identifying the factors responsible
for the observed improvement in perioperative mortality over this time
period. A retrospective analysis of hospital records examined 46
patient-related, morphologic, procedure-related, and postoperative
variables for associations with perioperative death and reoperation.
Operative mortality decreased significantly over the period of the study
from 25% before 1976 to 3% after 1987 (p < 0.0001). A number of the 46
variables examined showed trends over time that were similar to that for
mortality. Palliative procedures decreased over time. Reoperation for most
residual lesions also decreased to the degree that they were essentially
eliminated in recent years. The exception to this was reoperation for
postoperative left atrioventricular valve regurgitation, which also
decreased but remained at 7% in recent years. Both technical and
support-related procedural variables showed no trends over time, with the
exception of the performance of left atrioventricular valve annuloplasty,
which increased over time. Closure of the left-sided cleft was performed in
61% of the patients, with no trend over time. Annuloplasty and cleft
closure were not associated with less postoperative left atrioventricular
valve regurgitation, fewer reoperations, or lower mortality. Multivariate
logistic regression analysis identified only earlier year of operation, the
presence of double-orifice left atrioventricular valve, and postoperative
residual regurgitation of the left atrioventricular valve as risk factors
for death. Experience- related improvements in technical precision achieved
over time best account for the reduction in the rate of reoperation for
most types of residual lesions and also for the reduction in mortality. The
only residual lesion that has not been essentially completely eliminated is
left atrioventricular valve regurgitation, with reoperation for this lesion
having been reduced in recent years, but not eliminated. Improved
understanding of the structural and functional variability of the
atrioventricular valve in this lesion may be necessary before postoperative
dysfunction of this valve can be completely eliminated.
