Objective: The aim of our study was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the hybrid method off-pump for closure of isolated ventricular septal defect (VSD) compared with the traditional method of on-pump of children. Methods: This research was a retrospective cohort study. Data were collected from 500 patients with isolated VSD (or residual VSD after a previous repair) who underwent surgery at the National Scientific Medical Center from May 2016 to December 2020. Patients were operated with 1 of 2 methods of surgery: the traditional method of on-pump or the hybrid method of off-pump. This study assessed the safety and efficacy of the hybrid method by comparing it with the traditional method for the treatment of patients with isolated VSD. Results: The procedural success rate reached 93.2% in the hybrid method, with a 6.4% conversion rate to the traditional method and 0.4% hospital mortality. The mean operation time was 84 minutes (31; 160 minutes) in the hybrid group (n = 250) and 168 minutes (70; 300 minutes) in the traditional group (n = 250) (P = .000). Hospital mortality was 0.43% in the first group and 1.5% in the second group (P = .000). Conclusions: The hybrid method of VSD closure is safe and effective in a selected group of patients. The advantages of the hybrid method are improved cosmetics and shorter operation time and overall hospital stay.
