Contegra Versus Pulmonary Homograft for Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Reconstruction in Newborns

Completed
Conditions
Congenital Heart Defect
Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Reconstruction
Interventions
Procedure: right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction with pulmonary homograft
Procedure: right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction with contegra
Registration Number
NCT03348397
Lead Sponsor
Queen Fabiola Children's University Hospital
Brief Summary

Pulmonary homografts are standard substitutes for right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction in congenital heart surgery. Unfortunately shortage and conduit failure secondary to early calcifications and shrinking are observed particularly for small sized conduits in younger patients. In neonates, Contegra® 12mm could be a valuable alternative, but conflicting evidence exists. This retrospective study compared the outcome of these two conduits in a newborn population.
