Takedown of Yasui procedure due to closed ventricular septal defect.
A two and a half year old girl who had undergone the Yasui procedure as a neonate for ventricular septal defect, subaortic stenosis, and interrupted aortic arch underwent follow-up catheterization 2 years postoperatively. It showed that the neo-left ventricular tract reconstructed by Damus-Kaye-Stansel anastomosis had occluded due to closure of the ventricular septal defect and residual subaortic stenosis at the original left ventricular outflow tract. The patient therefore underwent takedown of the Yasui procedure.
