JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: A cardiopatia congênita é um dos problemas mais comuns ao nascimento acometendo 1 a 1,5 em cada 10.000 nascidos vivos. Atualmente mais de 85% das crianças com cardiopatias congênitas chegam à idade adulta em parte devido aos novos tratamentos, mas sobretudo em virtude da tendência de se realizarem correções cirúrgicas mais precoces. Por outro lado, é raro encontrar um adulto com tetralogia de Fallot (T4F) não-corrigida. O objetivo do presente relato foi descrever um caso de T4F submetido à correção cirúrgica na idade adulta. RELATO DO CASO: Paciente de 45 anos, sexo feminino, portadora de T4F internada para realização de correção cirúrgica. Ao exame físico apresentava-se cianótica nas extremidades e com saturação de oxigênio (SpO2) de 73%. Foi realizada anestesia geral balanceada com etomidato, fentanil, pancurônio e sevoflurano. A correção cirúrgica realizada foi o fechamento da comunicação ventricular e interposição de conduto valvado pulmonar n° 24, posteriormente foi fenestrado o septo ventricular. À saída de circulação extracorpórea (CEC) foram administradas milrinona e dopamina. A SpO2 ao fim da operação era 97%. Após o procedimento cirúrgico a paciente foi encaminhada ao CTI, onde permaneceu por 72 horas e teve alta hospitalar no oitavo dia pós-operatório em boas condições. CONCLUSÕES: O caso ilustrou sucesso de intervenção cirúrgica em paciente de alto risco com grande interação entre cirurgião, anestesista e terapia intensiva.

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Congenital cardiopathy is one of the most common problems at birth, with an incidence of 1 to 1.5 in 10,000 live births. Currently, more than 85% of children with congenital cardiopathy survive to adulthood, partly due to the development of new therapies, but especially because of the tendency for earlier surgical corrections. On the other hand, adult patients with non-corrected tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) are hard to find. The objective of the present report was to describe a case of repair of TOF in an adult patient. CASE REPORT: A female patient, 45 years old, with TOF, was admitted for surgical repair of her condition. Physical exam revealed extremities with cyanosis and oxygen saturation (SpO2) of 73%. General balanced anesthesia consisted of ethomidate, fentanyl, pancuronium and sevoflurane. During the surgery, the ventricular communication was closed, placement of a 24 French prosthetic conduit with valve and, posteriorly, the ventricular septum was fenestrated. Milrinone and dopamine were administrated when extracorporeal circulation (ECC) was removed. At the end of the surgery SpO2 was 97%. After the procedure the patient was admitted to the ICU where she remained for 72 hours, being discharged from the hospital on the eighth postoperative day in good condition. CONCLUSIONS: This case illustrated the successful surgical repair in a high-risk patient, with a very good interaction among the surgeon, anesthetist, and intensive care.
