The aim of this clinical trial was to evaluate the pulsatile perfusion mode in pediatric patients who had complex cardiac pathologies according to Jenkins stratifications (category 4) undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass procedures (CPB). Patients with transposition of great arteries (TGA) and
OBJECTIVE
To determine circulating atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) concentrations in the postoperative state and to define potential hemodynamic determinants of regional plasma ANF concentrations.
METHODS
Cohort study.
METHODS
Pediatric ICU in a university hospital.

We present the first description of amiodarone toxicity in the liver without phospholipidosis or steatosis. In doing so, we will review the various effects of amiodarone toxicity in various organs. The patient is a young adult who had cardiac reconstruction as a child for transposition of the great
BackgroundIn children with congenital heart disease (CHD), altered pulmonary circulation compromises gas exchange. Moreover, pulmonary dysfunction is a complication of cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). No data are available on the effect of different CHDs on lung injury. The aim of
Protein-losing enteropathy, documented by 51Cr-labeled albumin excretion studies, was demonstrated in a 24-month-old girl following the Mustard operation for complete transposition. Apparent postoperative inferior vena cava obstruction had been diagnosed by angiocardiograms and both caval pressure
The Great Arteries Transposition corrected by Mustard's repair is often complicated with inferior vena cava obstruction with consequent intestinal lymphangiectasia and protein-losing enteropathy. We report a case of a 9 years old boy who underwent Mustard's repair and presented diarrhoea, abdominal
99mTechnetium macroaggregated albumin has successfully been used to define severe postoperative pulmonary vasoconstriction in a four-month-old boy with D-transposition of the great vessels who had undergone a Blalock-Hanlon surgical atrial septectomy. Radionuclide imaging documented clinically
