5 Unbalanced AVSD The Challenges of UAVSD Precise diagnosis When does AVSD become unbalanced? Proper selection of surgical strategy When must biventricular repair be abandoned?

6 uavsd: BVR or UVR?

7 uavsd: BVR or UVR?

8 uavsd: BVR or UVR? Discordant pursuit of BVR is more frequent than discordant pursuit of UVR, likely driven by an intuitive notion that two ventricles are better than one. Discordant BVR is more costly in terms of survival than discordant UVR. Hickey EJ, et al. JTCVS 134(6), Dec 2007.

9 BVR or UVR : Is uavsd the same as borderline left heart??

10 Background Unbalanced AVSD Uncommon Paucity of outcomes data Nuanced surgical strategies Variable and complex anatomy Multiple important comorbidities

12 uavsd Literature n = 19 BVR only Long axis ratio (LAR): LV/RV 3 early failures (death, OHT) 3 late reoperations (event free survival 10 years)

13 uavsd Literature n = BVR, 6 SVR AVVI (RAV/LAV) and ratio RV length/lv length Four early deaths (3 BVR) Six early reoperations (All BVR) No late follow-up data

33 uavsd: BVR or UVR? Ventricular hypoplasia Malalignment of Atrioventricular Junction

34 Predicting BVR: Ventricular Hypoplasia Ventricular competence Ability to sustain full cardiac output

35 Predicting BVR: Ventricular Hypoplasia Ventricular competence Imprecise measurement Apex forming 2D echo geometry (LV length/width) Volume formulae Echo: unreliable MRI: impractical

36 Predicting BVR: Ventricular Hypoplasia Right Dominant Left Dominant

38 AV Malalignment Apportionment of AV valve over the underlying ventricles Anatomy of inflow physiology

39 AVVI Atrioventricular Valve Index (AVVI) Subcostal LAO view Measure area of common AV valve apportioned over each ventricle LAVV:RAVV or RAVV:LAVV

47 Predicting BVR: RV/LV Inflow Angle 116 pts with right dominant uavsd or bavsd Cluster analysis: 3 homogenous subgroups in strategy and outcome RV/LV inflow angle most sensitive discriminator of subgroups *Cohen et al.

48 Beyond Prediction: Growth Induction Strategies , n = 24 Staged Palliation (10), Valve repartitioning (9), Repair with residual (5) All achieved BVR Mid term survival 88% Z Scores (n=7) AV valves: (-1.1 to -6.5) (-2.1 to +1.8) Ventricles: (-3.6 to -7.5) (-1.0 to +2.0)

49 Conclusions Ability to predict ventricular competence after BVR is limited Malalignment of the AV junction is an important Malalignment of the AV junction is an important factor in the viability and sustainability of BVR

50 Conclusions LVII and RV/LV Inflow Angle may augment the utility of AVVI in predicting successful BVR Surgical strategies aimed at inducing growth Surgical strategies aimed at inducing growth warrant further investigation but current data supporting this approach are less than robust

51 Conclusions Clarification of the interplay of these many factors is needed to optimize outcomes in uavsd A prospective, multi-institutional study will be required to adequately power such an investigation
