title: [Combined operation for congenital cardiovascular and other anomalies in children].
abstract: Combination of congenital cardiovascular and other anomalies are often found. Combined operation is needed for some of these cases. We report 3 cases who underwent combined operations by combined team of cardiovascular and general surgical units. Case 1: A 10-month-old boy with VATER association was complicated with tetralogy of Fallot, double aortic arch and so on. He underwent division of left aortic arch for vascular ring by cardiovascular surgical unit and esophagogastrostomy for esophageal atresia by general surgical unit. Case 2: A 15-day-old girl with patent ductus arteriosus and eventration of the diaphragm underwent ligation of ductus arteriosus by cardiovascular surgical unit and plication of left diaphragm by general surgical unit. Case 3: An 8-month-old boy with tracheobronchomalacia and atrial septal defect underwent atrial septal defect (ASD) closure by cardiovascular, and extra tracheobronchial stenting on cardiopulmonary bypass by cardiovascular and general surgical unit. These 3 operations were successful, and we consider that combined operation is useful for certain surgical congenital multiple anomalies.
