First Annual Da Silva Center for Ebstein's Anomaly Symposium

Ebstein’s malformation is a rare congenital heart disease and few institutions have significant experience regarding number of patients. The clinical presentation of Ebstein anomaly is variable, as well the timing for surgical intervention. Many patients still have the surgical repair of Ebstein’s anomaly postponed due to the fear of having a tricuspid valve replaced by a prosthesis instead of repaired, which would imply in many reinterventions in life. Introduced in 1993 by Dr. Da Silva, the Cone procedure became the standard surgical repair for this disease, being applicable for almost all situations, however, only few surgeons are familiar with this operation, considering the variability of anatomical presentation of this congenital heart disease. The improved approach done by UPMC team to treat newborns with Ebstein anomaly with new surgical concepts, and the capability to do valve repair in complex situations need to be divulged. All professionals involved in the treatment of this heart condition need to understand the key points in the complementary tests and in the perioperative care that are crucial for the treatment success and better long-term outcomes. Ebstein's anomaly is a rare congenital heart defect. The Cone procedure that was developed is very specific to this patient population and is offered in only a few centers around the world. There have been advances in technique for management of this heart defect and it is important for all pediatric cardiologists to understand the options that exist to best care for their patients and increase their chance of survival with the best possible outcomes. The Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh specializes in this specific area of expertise and would like to share this knowledge with as many physicians as possible. TARGET AUDIENCE This course is designed for pediatric and adult cardiologists, cardiothoracic surgeons, APPs, and other medical professionals interested in congenital heart disease. LEARNING OBJECTIVES Education about Ebstein’s malformation, a congenital disease of Tricuspid valve, right ventricle, and right atrium, regarding Embryology, Anatomy, Complementary diagnostic tests, Contemporary indications for Surgical treatment. Demonstration of surgical steps of Cone procedure, specially the repair of complex cases applying the Cone procedure. Education about neonatal management in very sick newborns with contemporary resources and procedures available. This activity can improve the knowledge about this congenital heart disease, its clinical and surgical management. The main points in clinical evaluation and surgical repair will be addressed.
