  • Title: Starnes procedure for severe left atrioventricular valve regurgitation.
    Author: Nakata T, Ikeda T, Doi H, Baba S, Taguchi S, Sakata R.
    Journal: Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann; 2017 Feb; 25(2):140-142. PubMed ID: 26347547.
    Abstract:
    We present the case of a 19-day-old girl with incomplete atrioventricular septal defect, muscular ventricular septal defect, and severe left atrioventricular valve regurgitation. We attempted biventricular repair with left atrioventricular valve repair; however, we could not control the regurgitation. Moreover, the commercially available prosthetic valve was too large to implant. Thus we switched intraoperatively to a univentricular repair. We successfully performed patch closure of the left atrioventricular valve (Starnes procedure), Damus-Kaye-Stansel anastomosis, and a systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunt.
