Median Cleft

Median cleft deformities of the lower lip and mandible are very rare congenital anomalies. Our patient had median cleft of the lower lip, mandible, and the chin with tongue duplication, ankyloglossia, and cleft strap muscles with 2 neck contracture bands. This anomaly was associated with congenital heart disease transposition of great vessels, large ventricular septal defect, and severe pulmonary stenosis. Early repair was done at 6 months to improve feeding.

Cerebral Abscess

Tetralogy of Fallot (TF) classically consistsof the combination of right ventricularoutflow obstruction (pulmonary stenosis),ventricular septal defect (VSD), overridingaorta, and right ventricular hypertrophy. Thedegree of pulmonary stenosis and VSD determine thevariety of clinical manifestations.This type of congenital heart disease accountsfor about 10% of all congenital cardiac deformitiesand is the most common cyanotic lesion after thefirst year of life. Cerebral abscess is a serious com-plication in TF and is usually seen after the age of 2years.

Background We describe calendar time trends of patients with simple congenital heart disease. Methods and Results Using the nationwide Danish registries, we identified individuals diagnosed with isolated ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect, patent ductus arteriosus, or pulmonary stenosis during 1977 to 2015, who were alive at 5 years of age. We reported incidence per 1 000 000 person‐years with 95% CIs, 1‐year invasive cardiac procedure probability and age at time of diagnosis stratified by diagnosis age (children ≤18 years, adults >18 years), and 1‐year all‐cause mortality stratified by diagnosis age groups (5–30, 30–60, 60+ years). We identified 15 900 individuals with simple congenital heart disease (ventricular septal defect, 35.2%; atrial septal defect, 35.0%; patent ductus arteriosus, 25.2%; pulmonary stenosis, 4.6%), of which 75.7% were children. From 1977 to 1986 and 2007 to 2015, the incidence rates increased for atrial septal defect in adults (8.8 [95% CI, 7.1–10.5] to 31.8 [95% CI, 29.2–34.5]) and in children (26.6 [95% CI, 20.9–32.3] to 150.8 [95% CI, 126.5–175.0]). An increase was only observed in children for ventricular septal defect (72.1 [95% CI, 60.3–83.9] to 115.4 [95% CI, 109.1–121.6]), patent ductus arteriosus (49.2 [95% CI, 39.8–58.5] to 102.2 [95% CI, 86.7–117.6]) and pulmonary stenosis (5.7 [95% CI, 3.0–8.3] to 21.5 [95% CI, 17.2–25.7]) while the incidence rates remained unchanged for adults. From 1977–1986 to 2007–2015, 1‐year mortality decreased for all age groups (>60 years, 30.1%–9.6%; 30–60 years, 9.5%–1.0%; 5–30 years, 1.9%–0.0%), and 1‐year procedure probability decreased for children (13.8%–6.6%) but increased for adults (13.3%–29.6%) were observed. Conclusions Increasing incidence and treatment and decreasing mortality among individuals with simple congenital heart disease point toward an aging and growing population. Broader screening methods for asymptomatic congenital heart disease are needed to initiate timely treatment and follow‐up.

Rheumatic Heart

The prevalence of heart disease in school children in this study was found to be .37%. This agrees rather closely with the recent findings of Rauh in Cincinnati and Robinson and Aggeler in San Francisco, but is a distinct drop from the findings of investigators 20 and 30 years ago, when 1 to 2% was the prevalence commonly reported. From birth to 5 years of age heart disease in children is almost always congenital in origin. In the school age group 55% had congenital heart disease and 44% had rheumatic heart disease. Thus in the school age group, congenital heart disease occurred in just over half the heart cases, whereas if one takes the whole age group from birth to 15 years, congenital heart disease is found twice as commonly as rheumatic heart disease. Deaths from congenital heart disease are roughly six times as common as rheumatic heart disease in the birth to 15 years age group. During one year there were 29 deaths from congenital heart disease and five from rheumatic heart disease. It is of interest that by far the most common congenital defect of the heart is the ventricular septal defect. The patent ductus arteriosus is second with a third as many cases, tetralogy of Fallot is fourth, auricular septal defect is fifth, and so on. This is important to the paediatrician but it is of interest and importance to both the surgeon and the paediatrician to note the frequency according to the cause of death. Here tetralogy of Fallot is first, transposition of the great vessels second, anomalies of the aortic valve and ascending aorta third, ventricular septal defect fourth and coarctation of the aorta fifth. Thus efforts might well be directed to evolving satisfactory methods of treating transposition of the great vessels, the second most common cause of death from congenital heart anomalies.

Adult Lives

There were 40 adult congenital heart disease (CHD) patients seen in the Cardiology Division during 1 year (February 1993 - February 1994). The most frequently seen defect was atrial septal defect; however there were also cases with patent ductus arteriosus, pulmonary stenosis, ventricular septal defect, and tetralogy of Fallot. Hemodynamic disorder, serious hindrance to education achievement, and occupational threat due to limited physical capabilities as well as malnutrition are some of prominent issues to be closely anticipated. In general the older the patients the more serious hemodynamic disorder they suffer due CHD. It is worth thinking how to improve the quality of life of CHD patients who succeed to live their adult lives and minimize any possible fatal complication risks.

Abstract Background Adults with complex congenital heart disease palliated with systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunts have become rare and represent a particularly challenging patient group for the cardiologist. One of the complications and causes of severe clinical deterioration during long-term follow-up are progressive obstruction or total occlusion of the shunt. The risk for surgical intervention is frequently high and catheter intervention may be complicated by complex anatomy and shunt calcification. Case summary We report the case of a 47-year-old man with uncorrected (palliated) pulmonary atresia and ventricular septal defect who presented with progressive cyanosis (oxygen saturation 69%) and decreasing exercise capacity. Computed tomography revealed a totally occluded modified left Blalock–Taussig (BT) shunt and a severely stenosed central shunt (Waterston–Cooley) in a patient with confluent but hypoplastic pulmonary arteries and multiple major aortic pulmonary collaterals. Due to a high operative risk, an interventional, percutaneous approach was preferred to re-do surgery. From a radial access the calcified BT shunt could be crossed with a hydrophilic guidewire. Then, a rotational thrombectomy, balloon dilatation, and bare-metal stenting at the proximal and distal anastomoses were performed. Post-interventionally, peripheral oxygen saturation increased from 69% to 82%. Clopidogrel was administered for 1 month after bare-metal stenting. At 1-year follow-up, the BT shunt was still patent on echocardiography and exercise tolerance markedly improved. Discussion This case highlights the benefit of percutaneous rotational thrombectomy followed by stenting of chronically occluded systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunts for further palliation in adult patients with complex congenital heart disease not suitable for surgical repair.

Pulmonary Artery Stenosis

Simple uncomplicated forms of congenital heart disease in adults - pulmonary artery stenosis, non-healing of the Botall's duct - although they are a rarity, still studied more or less enough, and their lifelong recognition is not particularly difficult. Unfortunately, this cannot be said of another heart anomaly, a ventricular septal defect.

Anatomic Result

Patients with anomalous aortic origin of the left anterior descending coronary artery (AAOCA) from the right sinus of Valsava, and associated with a trans-septal course, are recommended for surgery only when symptoms of ischemia are present. The transconal unroofing method is straightforward and provides good anatomic result. In absence of significant coronary compression, surgical management of the trans-septal coronary course is proposed if the patient is a candidate to cardiac surgery for another reason, such as congenital heart disease. We describe a transconal approach in a patient with a trans-septal coronary artery and a ventricular septal defect.

Sickle cell disease, characterized by protean manifestations, has been confused frequently with rheumatic fever and congenital heart disease. Though it has been described in combination with rheumatic mitral stenosis, little on no consideration has been given to the association of sickle cell disease with congenital heart disease. This communication describes the occurrence of hemoglobin S disease in combination with congenital heart disease in three patients, the lesions being an atrial septal defect of the secundum type in one and pulmonary stenosis in two other patients. The congenital cardiac abnormalities were repaired under cardiopulmonary by-pass in the case of atrio-septal defect and the more severe case of pulmonary stenosis. Preparation for surgery consisted in the suppression of hemoglobin S formation by blood transfusions. During cardiopulmonary by-pass, further dilution of the hemoglobin S cells occurred so that their concentration in the patients' blood was negligible. Following surgery, it was necessary to administer greater amounts of intravenous fluid than usual to allow for the reduced ability to concentrate urine. Convalescence was unremarkable in each case.
