Abstract:Infants with critical congenital heart disease face life-threatening conditions immediately after birth.Once the condition worsens,the prognosis is extremely poor.In view of the serious adverse consequences that may result from this critical condition after surgery,in the diagnosis and treatment of a pregnant woman with abnormal cardiac structure of infant admitted to Beijing Anzhen Hospital,Capital Medical University,we chose the multidisci-plinary treatment mode starting surgery immediately after delivery of neonate for the first time to avoid the high risk before surgery.The infant was diagnosed with total anomalous pulmonary venous connection during the mother's pregnancy.After delivering the fetus through cesarean section in our hospital,she was immediately transferred to the cardiac operating room to confirm the diagnosis,complete the necessary preoperative examination,start anesthesia,complete surgical correction,and the operation process and postoperative recovery were smooth.This treatment approach,involving early postnatal surgery,holds the promise of improving the prognosis of infants with critical congenital heart disease,reducing mortality,and enhancing long-term health outcomes.
