Abstract :
Since 1992, 19 patients with an atrioventricular septal defect have undergone surgical treatment using a novel annuloplasty technique in which a small ventricular patch was used to reduce the anterior-posterior dimension of the atrioventricular orifice. All patients recovered uneventfully and needed no reoperation for the residual regurgitation or shunt. The results showed that the new annuloplasty technique was promising, although a long-term result is yet to be seen.
