[Jatene procedure with arch repair; usefulness of rapid two-stage repair].
Four cases of Jatene procedure with arch repair were performed since 2000 in our department. Two-stage repair was used in all cases and the extended end-to-end anastomosis and pulmonary artery banding (PAB) were performed in 3 cases as the initial repair. In a recent case of TGA type I with coarctation of the aorta (CoA), only subclavian flap aortoplasty was performed when he was 6-day-old and patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) was preserved and rapid two-stage Jatene procedure was performed when he was 8-day-old. There was no hospital or late death, or reoperation. The results of the two-stage Jatene procedure with arch repair was good and safe. Rapid two-stage repair was thought to be a useful choice especially for TGA type I with arch anomaly.
