Abstract： Objective To summarize our experience of surgical treatment for anomalous origin of one pulmonary artery in infants and children. Methods From March 2005 to May 2010，11 patients with anomalous origin of one pulmonary artery and other concomitant congenital cardiovascular malformations underwent surgical repair in Xijing Hospital of Fourth Military Medical University．The mean age of the patients was 11.5 months with a range from 2 months to 36 months．Their mean body weight was 7.1 kg with a range from 4 to 13 kg. Seven patients had anomalous origin of the right pulmonary artery from the ascending aorta, and four patients had anomalous origin of the left pulmonary artery from the ascending aorta. All the eleven patients had other concomitant intracardiac anomalies or vascular malformations as well as pulmonary hypertension, and underwent one stage surgical repair via median sternotomy under hypothermia and cardiopulmonary bypass. Results Their operation time was 169 - 293 （231±55） min, cardiopulmonary bypass time was 87-210 （138±47） min, and aortic-clamping time was 45-133 （86±28） min. There was one postoperative death who had low cardiac output syndrome after repair for tetralogy of Fallot and anomalous origin of the right pulmonary artery. The overall postoperative mortality was 9.1％. Postoperative echocardiography of all the surviving patients showed their left and right pulmonary artery origined from the right ventricle and pulmonary artery with satisfactory malformation correction but no residual shunt and pulmonary stenosis . All the surviving ten patients were followed up with a follow-up rate of 100% and mean follow-up time of 13.5 months with a range from 3 to 32 months. Their echocardiography during follow-up showed that there was no pulmonary stenosis in all the patients, and pulmonary blood pressure significantly decreased in 9 patients. Conclusion Patients with anomalous origin of one pulmonary artery should undergo surgical repair as early as possible with satisfactory short-term outcomes in infants and children. For elder patients with irreversible pulmonary hypertension, the choice of surgical treatment should be more cautious. During the surgery, the anomalous pulmonary artery and ascending aorta should be dissociated fully, and transection of the ascending aorta is helpful to get a satisfactory operating field view for the surgeon. Repairing aortic defect with autologous pulmonary arterial patch can effectively avoid the occurrence of postoperative aortic aneurysm.
