Middle to long-term outcomes of surgical repair for atrioventricular septal defect: a single-center study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The exact incidence and predictors of mortality and left atrioventricular valve (LAVV) re-operation in congenital atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) repair are still unclear. This study analyzed the middle to long-term outcomes of surgical repair for AVSD.

Methods

A total of 150 patients (69 males and 81 females) who underwent AVSD repair at Children's Hospital of Fudan University from January 2013 to December 2021 were divided into complete defect group (C-group, 67 cases), transitional defect group (T-group, 26 cases), and partial defect group (P-group, 57 cases). Outcomes during the peri-operative and 10-year follow-up periods were evaluated.

Results

The total mortality was 5.33% (8/150), including seven early deaths (10.4%) and no late deaths in the
