What is Rastelli Procedure?
The Rastelli Procedure is a complex open-heart surgery used to correct certain congenital heart defects such as Transposition of the Great Arteries (TGA) with Ventricular Septal Defect (VSD) and Pulmonary Stenosis, or Double Outlet Right Ventricle (DORV) with pulmonary outflow obstruction. It involves rerouting blood flow inside the heart using a patch to close the VSD and connecting the right ventricle to the pulmonary artery with a conduit, restoring normal circulation. This procedure is typically performed in infants or young children and is essential for long-term survival and healthy growth.
Who may be considered?
Rastelli Procedure may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.
How does it work?
Standard approach where a synthetic valved conduit is placed between the right ventricle and pulmonary artery while an intracardiac patch redirects left ventricular blood to the aorta.
Rastelli Repair with Bioprosthetic Valved Conduit
Most CommonStandard approach where a synthetic valved conduit is placed between the right ventricle and pulmonary artery while an intracardiac patch redirects left ventricular blood to the aorta.

Recovery and follow-up
Most children require 4-6 weeks of home recovery with restricted activity, followed by periodic cardiology follow-ups including echocardiograms to monitor conduit and repair function; the right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery conduit will need lifelong monitoring and eventual replacement as the child grows.
Risks
As with any complex congenital heart surgery, risks include bleeding, infection, arrhythmias, residual VSD leak, conduit obstruction or regurgitation, and the eventual need for conduit replacement as the child grows.
Alternatives
Depending on the exact anatomy, alternatives may include arterial switch operation with VSD closure, REV procedure, or Nikaidoh procedure; a pediatric cardiac surgeon must evaluate imaging to determine the most suitable repair.
