Abstract Background:Malignant ventricular arrhythmias (MVA) occurring subsequent to a repair of uncomplicated congenital heart disease is scarcely described in literature.Case presentation:One adult patient following congenital atrial septal defect (ASD) repair underwent immediate postoperative refractory MAV and ventricular fibrillation. The recurrent episodes of shocks cannot be suppressed by drugs. Emergent re-exploration was performed and repeated closure of ASD and DeVega's annuloplasty were completed. The patient had uneventful recovery and no occurrence of arrhythmia.Conclusion: Malignant ventricular arrhythmias are rare and should never be overemphasized even during the repair of uncomplicated congenital heart defect. Re-exploration should be taken into consideration when MVA occurred in the early stage postoperatively.

Penyakit jantung kongenital dewasa / grown-up congenital heart disease   (GUCH) yang menempati urutan teratas dengan insidensi 10% dari jantung kongenital asianotik pada dewasa adalah atrial septal defect (ASD). Terapi optimal ASD masih kontroversial. Operasi direkomendasikan pada pasien usia pertengahan dan usia tua dengan pintasan kiri ke kanan yang bermakna. Komorbid yang paling sering didapatkan pada defek kongenital pada usia dewasa muda adalah gangguan hemodinamik, hipertensi pulmonal, aritmia,  penyakit kardiovaskular dan penyakit resprasi. Dilaporkan pasien perempuan usia 29 tahun dengan atrial septal defect(ASD) dengan hipertensi pulmonaldan Left Ventricle (LV) Smallishyang dilakukan operasi penututupan defek atrial atau ASD closure. Persiapan preoperasi mencakup anamnesa, pemeriksaan fisik dan pemeriksaan penunjang.Perubahan patologi utama adalah peningkatan resistensi vaskuler paru dan perubahan sekunder terhadap peningkatan aliran darah dari pintasan kiri ke kanan. Masalah yang dihadapi pada pasien  perioperasi ini adalah ukuran jantung kiri baik atrium maupun ventrikel kiri yang kecil memberikan dampak hemodinamik tidak stabil berupa aritmia dan pulmonal hipertensi saat dilakukan penutupan defek. Pemberianobat topangan jantung (nitroglyserin, milrinone, norepinephrine, adrenaline) dan pembuatan Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) memberikan hasil hemodinamik yang stabil selama operasi dan  di ruang perawatan Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

Background Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect, with incidence of 0.7-0.9 live birth; it increases to 2-6% if first degree relative is affected. In Afghanistan majority of births take place at home and routine screening of neonates is not common, so true birth prevalence of CHD cannot be possibly calculated. Therefore, true prevalence of CHD in our population is unknown. Objective To verify the current pattern and frequency distribution of congenital heart disease (CHD) at the Cardiac Research Institute of Kabul Medical University. Methods  This retrospective study was conducted in children aged 0-14 years, who underwent echocardiography for possible congenital heart disease from January 2015 to December 2016. Results  Of 560 patients who underwent echocardiography, 392(70%) had cardiac lesions. Congenital cardiac lesions were found in 235 (60% of those with lesions) patients, while 157 (40%) patients had rheumatic heart disease. Patients with CHD were further subdivided into acyanotic and cyanotic groups. The majority of acyanotic group had isolated atrial septal defect (55%) while the most common lesion in the cyanotic group was Tetralogy of Fallot (42%). Conclusion Congenital heart defects are the most common heart disease in the pediatric population presenting at the Cardiac Research Institute of Kabul Medical University. Atrial septal defect (ASD) was the most common acyanotic defect, while Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) is the most common cyanotic defect.

Shortness Of Breath

Introduction. In patients suffering from heart disease, pregnancy is a risk factor for mortality. Heart disease in pregnant women can be in form of rheumatic heart disease, cardiomyopathy, or congenital heart disease. This case report is about the successful spinal anesthesia technique in cesarean section (C-section) patients with congestive heart failure due to congenital atrial septal defect, and pulmonary hypertension (PH). Case presentation. A pregnant woman, 24 years old, planned to have an emergency C-section. She complained about shortness of breath for 2 days before admission. Three months ago, the patient started to feel shortness of breath during activity and also complained her legs swelled. She has a history of congenital heart i.e. atrial septal defect (ASD), but not routinely been treated. Her examination showed tachypnea, murmur, bibasilar fine crackles lung sound, and pretibial pitting edema. Echocardiography showed ASD with pulmonary hypertension. Spinal Anesthesia using 0.5% isobaric bupivacaine 7.5 mg and fentanyl 25 µcg was given before surgery. Drugs was injected in L3-L4 level with the upper target was as high as T6. the head position is raised 30 degrees. Procedure went well and the APGAR score was 8/9, Patient was admitted to the ICU for one day and discharged from hospital at the 5 days of hospital care. Conclusion. Spinal single-shot spinal anesthesia with small doses of bupivacaine and adjuvant can be used as an alternative technique in emergency C-section for patients with congestive heart failure due to congenital atrial septal defect, and pulmonary hypertension.

Atrial septal defect is the most common congenital heart disease among adult population. Secundum variety of atrial septal defect comprises most frequently encountered atrial septal anomaly which presents during late age. Primum atrial septal defect usually associated with atrio-ventricular cushion defect among patients with Down syndrome. Small number of patients may present with fenestrated atrial septal defect. We have presented case of a woman who is young and symptomatic due to atrial septal defect comprising both secundum and primum type.
