atrial septal defect (asd) is a common congenital anomaly that has low surgical mortality and morbidity. we report a very rare case of a low-lying asd, combined with the drainage of the inferior vena cava and the left superior vena cava into the left atrium. this combination was associated with an unroofed coronary sinus. we also describe an iatrogenic surgical diversion of the inferior vena ca...
anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (alcapa) is a rare congenital cardiac malformation. we report three cases of alcapa who survived to adulthood. the first case was a 51-year-old woman who complained of typical chest pain that was diagnosed with alcapa using cardiac catheterization and coronary computed tomographic angiography (cta). the second case was a 30-...
the purpose of this study was to evaluate the early and late outcome after total correction of tetralogy of fallot (tof) in 101 consecutive patients with a mean age of 8.23 ± 4.90 years underwent repair of surgery at one institution between 1995 and 2006. forty two patients had initial palliative operations. a transannular patch was inserted in 60 (58.5%) patients. risk factors for operative mo...
conclusions the right ventricular outflow tract palliation in children with cyanotic chd leads to long-term favorable outcome regarding improvement in oxygen saturation, increase in z score of both left and right pulmonary arteries and also considerable decrease in spell. also, death and complications are rare following rvot palliation. background the right ventricular outflow tract (rvot) pall...
supravalvar mitral ring is a rare congenital heart defect of surgical importance. the condition is characterized by an abnormal ridge of the connective tissue on the atrial side of the mitral valve. it often substantially obstructs the mitral valve inflow. we herein introduce a case of a supravalvar mitral ring in a 17-year-old male, who was admitted to our hospital with cardiac syncope. he had...
iniencephaly is a rare kind of neural tube defect that is classified into two types of iniencephaly apertus and iniencephaly clausus. this anomaly could be diagnosed prenatally by obstetric ultrasonography and terminated by therapeutic abortion; however, it could be undiagnosed until birth similar to our case due to the abnormal position of the fetus or lack of experience of the sonographer. du...
background: coarctation of the aorta (coa) is a defect that accounts for 5-8% of all congenital heart diseases. balloon angioplasty as a treatment for coa is increasingly performed, with endovascular stents having been proposed as a means of improving the efficacy and safety of the procedure. the aim of this study was to evaluate the systolic blood pressure gradient at rest and during maximal e...
evaluation of pulse oximetry in the early detection of cyanotic congenital heart disease in newborns
background: delayed or missed diagnosis of critical and cyanotic congenital heart disease (chd) in asymptomatic newborns may result in significant morbidity and mortality. the aim of this study was to determine the accuracy of pulse oximetry screening performed on the first day of life for the early detection of critical and cyanotic chd in apparently normal newborns. methods: this cross-secti...
background: coronary artery disease is one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality in developed countries. atherosclerosis begins in early childhood and progresses through life. with advances in pediatric cardiology, the prevalence of congenital heart disease in adults has increased in relation to children. a great deal of research has been conducted on serum glucose and lipid conc...
background: some congenital defects can be prevented in the pregestational stage. however, many health professionals are not prepared to provide counselling to couples regarding the same. objective: this study aimed to assess the performance of doctors and nurses from a primary health-care unit in florianopolis, brazil, in preventing birth defects in the preconception period based on the recomm...
