Sickle cell anemia

Sickle cell anemias are chronic hemolytic diseases that may induce three types of acute accidents: severe anemia, severe bacterial infections, and ischemic vasoocclusive accidents (VOA) caused by sickle-shaped red blood cells obstructing small blood vessels and capillaries. Many diverse complications can occur.

Single ventricle

The presence of only one working lower chamber in the heart, usually with a virtual absence of the ventricular septum and usually present in conjunction with double inlet left or right ventricle.

Hemoglobin sickle cell disease is associated with anemia and significant vascular sickling sequelae, which increase the risk associated with single-ventricle palliation.

To our knowledge, there are no reports in the English-language medical literature of single-ventricle palliation having been performed on a patient who had either sickle cell anemia or sickle cell-hemoglobin C disease.

Herein, we discuss our clinical and surgical management of an infant with tricuspid atresia type IA and hemoglobin sickle cell disease who survived single-ventricle palliative procedures through the 2nd stage of a bidirectional Glenn anastomosis.
