<p>1207, either, cat: 49</p><p>SURVIVAL IN PATIENTS WITH CLASSIC HYPOPLASTIC LEFT HEART SYNDROME VS. DOUBLE OUTLET RIGHT VENTRICLE VARIANTS G.K. Gallardo, R.T. Fedderly, M. Krolikowski, J.S. Tweddell Medical College of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, WI, USA</p><p>Background: We have reported our patients’ survival with classic Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) and its subgroups: Aortic Atresia/Mitral Atresia (AA/MA), Aortic Stenosis/Mitral Stenosis (AS/MS) and Aortic Atresia/Mitral Stenosis (AA/MS). Patients with Double Outlet Right Ventricle (DORV) were specifically excluded. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to compare survival of pts with DORV with Mitral Atresia (MA) to DORV without MA, as well as with classic HLHS. Methods: Twenty six consecutive pts with DORV variant of HLHS were included in addition to our original group of 72 classic HLHS pts. All patients were born between 4/1996 and 12/2004. The DORV group was separated into those with (n=10) and those without (n=16) MA. Results: Survival to one year in DORV pts was 92% (24/26) vs. 81% (58/72) in HLHS pts (p=ns). Survival to date in DORV pts is 73% (19/26) vs. 78% (56/72) in HLHS pts (p=ns), despite only 9/26 DORV pts requiring stage 1 palliation. Survival to date was significantly lower in DORV w/MA (50%) than in the following 3 subgroups: DORV w/o MA (88%, p=0.016), AA/MA (83%, p=0.03) and AS/MS (88%, p=0.03). Survival was greater in DORV w/o MA (88%) vs. AA/MS (58%, p=0.04). Conclusion: Overall survival to date is similar in patients with DORV forms of HLHS to those with classic HLHS. DORV pts without MA have a survival similar to that of the AS/MS and AA/MA HLHS groups. The lower survival in DORV pts with MA is similar to the lower survival in AA/MS pts.</p>
