A small-for-gestational-age infant with cyanosis due to double outlet right ventricle with severe pulmonary stenosis and patent ductus arteriosus was treated with oral prostaglandin E1 derivative (OP-1206). The constricting ductus arteriosus dilated and the ductus-dependent pulmonary blood flow
BACKGROUND
We sought to investigate the influence of prenatal diagnosis and risk factors for adverse outcomes in double outlet right ventricle (DORV) not associated with heterotaxy.
METHODS
Patients with a pre or postnatal diagnosis of DORV from 2000 to 2007 were identified and classified into 3
A case of central nervous system anomalies(agenesis of corpus callosum, colpocephaly, hydrocephalus, congenital dermal sinus) associated with congenital heart disease(double-outlet right ventricle, complete endocardial cushion defect, atrial septal defect, pulmonary arterial stenosis, patent ductus
Prostaglandin E1, used since 1975, has changed favorably the clinical and surgical prognosis of neonates with congenital heart defects, mainly those with a variety of ductus-dependent defects. Due to recent modifications that have been observed with this drug as far as dosage, side effects, duration
Interrupted aortic arch is a rare condition, usually lethal in early infancy without treatment. The only characteristic feature on conventional non-invasive investigation is peripheral pulse inequality, which indicates ductal construction, and therefore may be absent or transient and preterminal. We

OBJECTIVE
To report on the use of sildenafil for pulmonary hypertension treatment of a newborn patient after cardiac surgery.
METHODS
A female, full term newborn infant with diagnosis of double outlet right ventricle, pulmonary hypoplasia and subaortic ventricular septal defect, was submitted to
In this review management of the most common cyanotic congenital heart defects (CHDs) was discussed; the management of acyanotic CHD was reviewed in Part I of this series. While the need for intervention in acyanotic CHD is by and large determined by the severity of the lesion, most cyanotic CHDs
In the Kardiocentrum, University Hospital Motol, Prague, protocol of the primary repair of interrupted aortic arch was introduced, and between 1993-1997, 15 neonates aged 1-26 days (median 5 days) were operated on. Treatment with prostaglandins E for maintenance of the ductal patency, correction of
Eighty-two consecutive patients with interrupted aortic arch were referred to our institution between 1985 and 1995. Three died before any attempt at operation and 79 underwent surgical repair. Median age at operation was 9 days (range 1 day to 6 years) and median weight was 3.0 kg (range 1.8 to 20
