6, 2025 Medtronic plc hasannounced it received CE ( Conformit Europenne ) Mark for the Harmony Transcatheter Pulmonary Valve (TPV) System, a minimally invasive alternative to open-heart surgery for congenitalheartdisease patients with native or surgically repaired right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT).
Background Infants with congenitalheartdisease (CHD) are clinically vulnerable to cardiac deteriorations and intercurrent infections. We aimed to quantify the impact of health system disruptions during the COVID-19 pandemic, on their clinical outcomes and whether these differed by socioeconomic and ethnic subgroups.
Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is one of the most common forms of congenitalheartdisease (CHD). PDA combined with pulmonary artery aneurysm (PAA) due to IE is rare in children. Infectious endocarditis (IE) is a rare but serious complication of PDA.

Transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement (TPVR) has become a safe and effective alternative to surgical PVR in tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), isolated pulmonary stenosis (PS), and other congenitalheartdisease (CHD) variants.
Pulmonary valve failure requiring replacement (PVR) is more commonly seen in children and young adults with congenitalheartdisease (CHD). Adults with CHD and pulmonary regurgitation have traditionally underg.
Pulmonary arterial hypertension related to congenitalheartdisease as a paradigm of complexity Pulmonary arterial hypertension related to congenitalheartdisease (PAH-CHD) really represents a paradigm of complexity.
Aims A proportion of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension associated with congenitalheartdisease (PAH-CHD) do not fit in the current classification.
Patients with pulmonary hypertension associated with a left-right shunt include a wide spectrum of pathophysiological substrates, ranging from those characterized by pulmonary over-circulation to those with advanced pulmonary vascular disease.
Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is a rare congenitalheartdisease characterized by the inability of all pulmonary veins to connect to the left atrium. Our previous bibliometric article sum.
Transpulmonary exosomal miRs offer valuable insights into pulmonary circulation microenvironments. Using an in vitro flow model simulating the shear stress experienced by pulmonary endothelial cells, we observed a significant upregulation of miR‐21.
Background:Neonates with complex congenitalheartdisease and pulmonary overcirculation have been historically treated surgically. Pulmonary arteries grew adequately for age, and devices were easily removed without complications. However, subcohorts may benefit from less invasive procedures. months (IQR, 4.0–10.8),
Objective This study assessed the long-term effects of triple therapy with prostanoids on patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension associated with congenitalheartdisease (PAH-CHD), as there is limited information on the safety and efficacy of this treatment approach.
Crochetage sign on ECG in ASD ECG in ASD with severe pulmonary hypertension: Tall R’ in V1, ST depression in inferior leads and V2-V5, and T inversion in inferior leads and V1-V6 are seen. All these features together in a cyanotic congenitalheartdisease is characteristic of tricuspid atresia.
The left partial anomalous pulmonary vein connection is a rare congenitalheartdisease, especially with intact atrial septum. Now we reported a case of the left superior pulmonary vein drainage to left innomi.
BackgroundCor Triatriatum is a congenital anomaly characterized by the abnormal presence of a fibromuscular junction in one of the atria, as seen on echocardiography. Pulmonary vein abnormalities were observed in 4 ouf of 7 (57.1%) patients and atrial septal defects in 2 out of 7 patients (28.5%).
Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common form of cyanotic congenitalheartdisease (CHD). Early management of this condition is typically dictated by the degree of pulmonary stenosis (PS) and resulting oxygen saturations.
Objective Early risk assessment of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in patients with congenitalheartdisease (CHD) is crucial to ensure timely treatment. Class Activation Mapping (CAM) images demonstrated the model's attention focused on the pulmonary artery segment.
IntroductionPrimary pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) is a rare congenitalheartdisease that proves to be a clinical challenge due to the rapidly progressive disease course and high rates of treatment complications.
Herein, we compare conventional biplane angiography to multimodality image fusion with live fluoroscopy using two-dimensional (2D)–three-dimensional (3D) registration (MMIF 2D−3D ) and assess MMIF 2D−3D impact on radiation exposure and contrast volume during cardiac catheterization of patients with congenitalheartdisease (CHD).
Fallot-type absent pulmonary valve is a rare and complex congenitalheartdisease. Repair surgery for this condition during the neonatal period has a mortality rate of over 50%. We reported a neonate with Fall.
Animal studies have shown that mice with TBX1 gene mutations have smaller left pulmonary arteries compared to wild type mice, defined by a reduced left pulmonary artery (LPA) to right pulmonary artery (RPA) ratio. A single study has shown this translates to humans with 22q11 and structurally normal hearts.

Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most prevalent form of cyanotic congenitalheartdisease and has become the poster child for the evolution and success of neonatal cardiac surgery.
A 37-year-old woman with biventricular repair for pulmonary atresia and an intact ventricular septum was referred for an electrophysiological study in the context of recurrent atrial arrhythmias with multiple electrical cardioversions. Her clinical tachycardia was easily inducible and had a cycle length (TCL) of 340 ms.
Right Heart Catheterization in Tetralogy of Fallot With the availability of high resolution echocardiographic images and Doppler echocardiography, role of cardiac catheterization has come down in tetralogy of Fallot and other congenitalheartdiseases in general. Normal subjects have a value around 2.1.
Statistically — When an older adult with known underlying heartdisease presents to the ED in a regular WCT rhythm, but without clear sign of sinus P waves — the odds that the rhythm will turn out to be VT are ~90% even before you look at the ECG. PEARL # 2: How Might the History Help?
Nowhere is the need for fully absorbable metal stents greater than in patients experiencing vascular anomalies associated with congenitalheartdisease (CHD).
Transcript of the video: Hemodynamic vise is the term given to compression of a vertical vein, which ascends to the brachiocephalic vein, between a bronchus and pulmonary artery. This produces a vicious cycle and that is why it is known as hemodynamic vise in certain types of congenitalheartdiseases which have a vertical vein.
Purpose This study aims to evaluate deep learning (DL) denoising reconstructions for image quality improvement of Doppler ultrasound (DUS)-gated fetal cardiac MRI in congenitalheartdisease (CHD). Methods Twenty-five fetuses with CHD (mean gestational age: 35 ± 1 weeks) underwent fetal cardiac MRI at 3T. vs. 8.3 ± 3.6,

Abstract Introduction Patients with congenitalheartdisease are at increased risk for requiring cardiac pacing during their lifetime. Due to atrial and ventricular pacing dependence, a comprehensive congenital care team concluded the need for lead extraction and replacement of pacemaker via leadless peacemaking device.

Patients with congenitalheartdisease, infective endocarditis and those who underwent concomitant valve or pericardial surgery were excluded. The primary outcome was a composite of mortality and congestive heart failure at 1 year. We only included those who had all three tests before surgery: ECHO, CMR and RHC.
Journal of the American Heart Association, Ahead of Print. BackgroundThe right ventricle (RV) is at risk in patients with complex congenitalheartdisease involving right‐sided obstructive lesions. We have shown that capillary rarefaction occurs early in the pressure‐loaded RV. Capillary rarefaction occurred immediately.
