- W2071834588 abstract "ObjectiveThe purposes of this study were to evaluate the histologic characteristics of the aortic wall and the risk factors related to histopathology and aortic dilatation in patients undergoing intracardiac repair of tetralogy of Fallot.MethodsOperatively excised full-thickness aortic wall tissue from 98 consecutive patients undergoing intracardiac repair of tetralogy of Fallot aged 6 months to 47 years (mean 104.5 ± 102.8 months; median 72 months) were studied by light microscopy. The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was done to quantify the diagnostic accuracy of loss of lamellar counts and multiple logistic regression models.ResultsTwenty-five (25.5%) aortic tissue specimens were indicated as histologically normal and were used as normal controls. The incidence of elastic fragmentation, increased ground substance, medionecrosis, smooth muscle disarray, and fibrosis was 74.5%, 54%, 39.8%, 26.5%, and 57.1%, respectively. A lamellar count of less than 60 was associated with a sensitivity of 80% and a specificity of 87.67%. Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve indicated that 93.37% (standard error ± 0.039) of the time the value of lamellar count was lower for the abnormal histopathology group than for the normal group (P < .001). The risk of aortic dilatation was 15.97 times higher in patients with histopathologically abnormal aorta.ConclusionsThe majority of aortic media of the ascending aorta in cyanotic tetralogy of Fallot indicates significant loss of lamellar units and pre-existing intrinsic aortopathy. The changes are present since infancy and are more pronounced in older patients subjected to long-standing cyanosis and volume overload and may account for or may coexist with the higher incidence of aortic dilatation encountered in these patients.
