Surgical Repair of Secondary Subaortic Stenosis in Congenital Heart Disease Without Initial Subaortic Obstruction
CONCLUSIONS: Secondary subaortic stenosis is an uncommon heart disease. The reason is related to several causes, including missed diagnosis, unnoticed abnormalities of LVOT, and further changes of geometric morphology by intracardiac surgery. The results of surgery in these patients are satisfied. However, the recurrence of stenosis is still frequent.PMID:35238308 | DOI:10.1532/hsf.4299 (Source: The Heart Surgery Forum)

Early outcomes of fenestrated intra ‐extracardiac Fontan procedure: Insights, experiences, and expectations
ConclusionsEarly outcomes of intraextracardiac fenestrated FP are encouraging. This procedure may improve the results in a patient population who should be palliated as univentricular physiology, especially in cases with complex cardiac anatomy. (Source: Journal of Cardiac Surgery)

Repair of complete atrioventricular septal defect under 3.5 kilograms: defining the limits of safe repair.
Repair of complete atrioventricular septal defect (cAVSD) is routinely performed at around 3 months of age with good results. However, some patients require earlier surgery due to heart failure or failure to thrive. It is uncertain whether cAVSD repair performed on patients ≤3.5kg leads to increased mortality and reoperation on the left atrioventricular valve (LAVV).

Repair of complete atrioventricular septal defect between 2 and 3.5 kilograms: Defining the limits of safe repair

Is It A Residual Ventricular Septal Defect?
A 1-year-old-boy (weight, 7.4 kg; height, 67 cm) with Trisomy 21 and a diagnosis of complete atrioventricular septal defect with tetralogy of Fallot presented to the author's institution for intracardiac repair. Transthoracic echocardiography reported an ostium primum atrial septal defect, a non-restrictive inlet-type ventricular septal defect, and antero-superior deviation of the infundibular septum with a severe right ventricular outflow tract obstruction [peak pressure gradient of 75 mm Hg]. Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography confirmed the findings [Figure 1A&B, Figure 2, Videocvlip-1,2,3]. (Source: Journal...

Surgical management of hearts with isomeric atrial appendages
ConclusionEarly surgical results are satisfactory in patients with left isomerism, but disappointing for those with right. Recent advances in cardiac and liver transplantation may offer improved survival. (Source: Journal of Cardiac Surgery)

Home High-Flow Nasal Cannula Therapy in Children with Congenital Heart Disease
AbstractHigh-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy has been applied in the perioperative respiratory care for children with congenital heart disease and respiratory problems. However, the information about the feasibility of home HFNC therapy remains lacking among them. We retrospectively reviewed 5 children with congenital heart disease and respiratory problems who underwent home HFNC therapy, and evaluated their feasibility and safety. Age and weight at the introduction of home HFNC therapy were 19 (2–119) mon ths and 5.3 (3.1–11.4) kg, respectively. All subjects had chromosomal anomaly including trisomy 18 in 3 and...

Live birth prevalence of atrioventricular septal defect after the implementation of new prenatal screening guidelines
CONCLUSIONS: A significant increase in the rate of TOPFA was found, with no difference in the distribution of chromosomal or non-chromosomal status, leading to a 21% reduction in liveborn infants with AVSD.FUNDING: none.TRIAL REGISTRATION: none.PMID:35088704 (Source: Danish Medical Journal)
