OBJECTIVE
Children with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), pulmonary atresia (PA), and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries (MAPCAs) are at risk for reperfusion pulmonary edema (RPE) after unifocalization procedures to reconstruct the central pulmonary arteries. The purpose of this study was to
The case presented is an antenatal diagnosis of tetralogy of Fallot with absent pulmonary valve which was accompanied by hydrops fetalis and polyhydramnios with an absent stomach echo. Absent pulmonary valve was diagnosed by a cystic, pulsatile, aneurysmal dilatation of pulmonary arteries and a
After total correction of tetralogy of Fallot, pulmonary atresia and major aorto-pulmonary collateral arteries, a 31-year-old man developed life-threatening pulmonary hypertension and reperfusion pulmonary edema, leading to pulmonary hemorrhage, right heart failure and hypoxia. Because of difficulty
Tetralogy of Fallot with absent pulmonary valve is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly. We report on the echocardiographic features of a fetus with such an anomaly and aneurysm of the pulmonary artery associated with hydrops fetalis and polyhydramnios. The prognosis of tetralogy of Fallot with absent
We describe clinical and echocardiographic features of tetralogy of Fallot with absent pulmonary valve complex (TOF/APVC) and hypothesized that outcome might be related to pulmonary artery enlargement or severity of illness. We examined the clinical records of all 23 patients evaluated at our
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by fulminant respiratory failure due to noncardiac pulmonary edema. This can be triggered by a heterogeneous group of diseases. We report an unusual case of an infant who developed severe ARDS in association with a severe cyanotic attack
Nephrotic syndrome is an uncommon complication of tetralogy of Fallot and has been rarely reported in pediatric population. We describe a 4-year-old female Congolese child who was referred for investigation for persistent dyspnea, edema, and cyanosis and nephrotic range proteinuria. Our patient
OBJECTIVE
The aims of our study are to describe the incidence, clinical profile, and risk factors for pulmonary reperfusion injury after the unifocalization procedure for tetralogy of Fallot, pulmonary atresia, and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries. We hypothesized the following: (1)
OBJECTIVE
To study lung protection by perfusion with hypothermic protective solution to the pulmonary artery during total correction of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF).
METHODS
Sixty-four consecutive children with TOF were randomly divided into control group (n = 30) and lung protective group (n = 34).
The objective of this report was to emphasize the sonographic findings of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) during the prenatal period. Four fetuses with TOF were prenatally diagnosed at gestational ages of 25, 28, 25, and 32 weeks. Based on this small series, prenatal sonographic findings suggestive of TOF
A 13-year-old girl, who was suffering complications with bilateral pulmonary artery stenosis after intracardiac repair for tetralogy of Fallot, suffered life-threatening left pulmonary bleeding and edema following inadvertent unilateral stent implantation for a left pulmonary stenosis. Pulmonary
The prognosis of tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) treated only with Blalock-Taussig shunt (BTS) operation is unclear. A woman with TOF underwent classic BTS operation at 10 years of age. Despite no medication, she delivered two children and worked without apparent heart failure. At 72 years of age, she
We operated on a 47-year-old male for Tetralogy of Fallot with severe right heart dysfunction (RVEF 25%, RVEDP 15 mmHg, massive TR) and right heart failure (ascites and edema). The operation was completed successfully. However, persistent severe arrhythmia occurred in the CCU and assisted
This study hypothesized that atrial fibrillation was associated with heart failure (HF) hospitalization, and that patients who received rhythm control therapy had a lower incidence of HF hospitalization and mortality.Atrial fibrillation is a known risk
