Use of glutaraldehyde-treated autologous pericardial patch in complete atrioventricular septal defect repair
CONCLUSIONS: Glutaraldehyde-treated autologous pericardium is a safe material that can be confidently used for the repair of the ventricular component of complete atrioventricular septal defects. This patch material does not adversely affect atrioventricular valve function and allows for the successful closure of ventricular septal defects.PMID:38039032 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202311_34470 (Source: Pharmacological Reviews)

Redo mitral valve replacement in an adult with severe pulmonary hypertension resulting from structural valve deterioration and left ventricular outflow tract obstruction and a history of atrioventricular septal defect repair: a case report
Pulmonary hypertension (PH)-associated with left heart disease (Nice PH classification group II) improves when the latter is treated; however, the treatment of PH concomitant with group I PH due to congenital ... (Source: Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery)

Long-term results following atrioventricular septal defect repair
Atrioventricular septal defects (AVSD) represent 4 –7% of congenital cardiac malformations. Definitive early repair is favored over prior pulmonary artery banding and delayed definitive repair in many centers. ... (Source: Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery)

Preoperative versus postoperative survival in patients with univentricular heart: a nationwide, retrospective study of patients born in 1990-2015
Conclusions Surgery was refrained in one quarter of the patients, among whom almost all died shortly after birth. Long-term prognosis was largely determined during the first 2 years. There was a strong concordance between preoperative and postoperative survival. HLHS survival was improved, but non-HLHS survival did not change significantly. This study demonstrates the complications and outcomes encountering newborns with UVH at all major stages of preoperative and operative treatment. (Source: BMJ Open)

Staged repair for complete atrioventricular septal defect in patients < 4.0 kg
This study compared the mortality, left atrioventricular valve (LAVV)-related reoperation, and LAVV competence in symptomatic neonates and small infants who underwent either staged repair incorporating pulmonary artery banding (PAB) or primary repair for complete atrioventricular septal defect (CAVSD).
