In a review of more than 800 patients undergoing surgical repair of complete atrioventricular septal defect, there was no difference in outcomes comparing modified single-patch with the double-patch technique. See Article page 1014. A consortium of 4 congenital heart surgery centers from Australia have reviewed their results with complete atrioventricular septal defect (CAVSD) repair and compared the outcomes of the modified single-patch and double-patch techniques.1Fong L.S. Betts K. Bell D. Konstantinov I.E. Nicholson I.A. Winlaw D.S. et al.the Australian CAVSD study groupResults of complete atrioventricular septal defect repair over 25 years in Australia.J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg. 2020; 159: 1014-1025.e8Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF Scopus (14) Google Scholar The authors appear to have finally settled the ongoing debate over which technique is better. The authors found no difference in survival, need for left atrioventricular valve reintervention, incidence of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, or need for pacemaker placement. For the past 20 years this topic has been the subject of countless debates at our national meetings. In fact, 8 of the references for this manuscript are formal comparisons of the 2 techniques. I believe that the very comprehensive and thorough propensity matching of this analysis has finally settled the debate. Surgeons and centers experienced in doing either 1 of these 2 operations for CAVSD actually have very similar excellent results. It should be noted, however, that there are other factors that contribute to these results. One is the timing of the surgery, with a median age of 3 months and weight of 4.5 kg. Surgical repair of CAVSD at this age helps avoid the postoperative complication of pulmonary hypertension, and the atrioventricular (AV) valve insufficiency associated with progressive dilatation of the AV annuli over time. A second factor is that in Australia there appears to be regionalization of care, with 4 large centers accounting for these 800 cases. Another interesting observation is that the Australians seem to have abandoned the classic single-patch technique. In my opinion, this technique has been associated with the greatest incidence of reoperation for left AV valve insufficiency, and it appears that it is slowly being abandoned. One point that the authors did not emphasize but they continue to confirm is that the modified single-patch technique is associated with shorter cardiopulmonary bypass and aortic crossclamp times. The other factor that I have found useful regarding the modified single-patch technique is that it is a much easier technique to teach to congenital cardiac surgical fellows in training. One final problem remaining with both techniques is residual left AV valve regurgitation. This was the most common indication for reoperation in both groups, and nearly 10% of both cohorts required left AV valve reintervention. This underscores the importance of a great deal of attention being paid to the left AV valve at the time of the initial operation. Interestingly, the authors note only 2 patients having reoperation for left AV valve stenosis. It may be an important finding from this manuscript that when repairing the left AV valve, we should err toward the side of residual left AV valve stenosis rather than leaving left AV valve regurgitation. Curiously, the zone of apposition was closed in almost all patients who had a modified single-patch technique but only 50% of the patients who had the double-patch technique. That being said, there was still no difference in reoperation rates for left AV valve insufficiency. This is a curiosity that I find difficult to explain. Congratulations to the Australian centers. Their regionalization of care and early operation for CAVSD has led to excellent outcomes with both the modified single-patch technique and the double-patch operation. The authors have truly settled the ongoing debate over which technique is “better.” One unfortunate consequence is that we will no longer be able to use this topic for lively discussions regarding these patients at our meetings. The meetings will now have to focus on improving the results of left AV valve repair. This case is now closed.
