Abstract

Objectives: To investigate the early outcomes and cosmetic results of a horizontal right axillary minithoracotomy for closure of ventricular septal defects (VSDs) at Hanoi Heart Hospital.[1]


Methods: a descriptive cross-sectional study. We retrospectively reviewed 119 children who underwent horizontal right axillary minithoracotomy for ventricular septal defects closure at Hanoi Heart Hospital from January 2022 to December 2022.


Results: the average weight was 11.1 ± 8.2 kg, from 2.6 to 51.0 kg. The number of children below 6 months old accounted for 34.5% (41 patients). The rates of perimembranous VSD, infundibular VSD, inlet VSD, and muscular VSD were 68.1%, 27.7%, 3.4%, and 0.8%, respectively. The aortic cross-clamping time was 53.1 ± 23.5 minutes, the duration of cardiopulmonary bypass was 77.9 ± 29.7 minutes. The length of postoperative hospital stay was 7.4 ± 2.3 days. Postoperative residual shunt accounted for 5.9%, the rate of severe complications and hospital mortality were 0%.


Conclusion: ventricular septal defects repair through a horizontal right axillary minithoracotomy at Hanoi Heart Hospital provided good early outcomes with satisfactory aesthetic results.
