Background: Echocardiography is the most sensitive tool to diagnose congenital heart diseases efficiently. It can be repeated as many times as required to see the progress, outcome of treatment and complications. Echocardiography laboratory can give a scenario of pattern of congenital heart diseases existing in Bangladesh as well as natural history of the cases and treatment options offered.Methods: It is a retrospective review of database of echocardiography patient from pediatric noninvasive laboratory of a cardiac hospital from January 2012 to December 2012.Results: Out of 6914 cases 55.73% were male and 44.27% female. Neonates include 8.48%, 36.62% Down Syndrome were infant, 34.02% were under 5 years, 17.97% were children and adolescents and 2.96% were adults. Normal Echocardiography finding was found in 17.28% cases. Ventricular septal defect (VSD) was found in 18.60% cases, Atrial septal defects (ASD) in 15.41% cases, Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in 8.59% cases, Atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) in 1.97% cases, Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) in 4.79% cases and Transposition of great arteries (TGA) in 2.26% cases. Down syndrome was the commonest chromosomal abnormality seen in 2.4% cases.Conclusion: This study shows that VSD is the commonest congenital heart lesions in our country followed by ASD. Down syndrome was the commonest chromosomal abnormality seen in 2.4% cases.Cardiovasc. j. 2017; 9(2): 97-105

Background: Children with congenital malformations (CM) may have congenital heart diseases (CHDs) which may be initially asymptomatic. These need to be recognised and managed early in order to reduce unnecessary morbidity in affected patients. We report the pattern of CHDs in children with congenital malformations who had echocardiography over a one year period in UDUTH, Sokoto. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study carried out in the Paediatric Cardiology Unit from 1st January to 31st December 2019. Children presenting with CM were recruited and had echocardiagraphic screening for CHDs. Data were analysed with SPSS 23 version. Statistical significance was taken at p < 0.05. Results: 81 children were seen with CM, comprising 42 females and 39 males (M:F=0.93:1); age range of 2 days to 13 years. Most frequent malformationswere anorectal malformations (ARM) in 28 (34.6%), Down syndrome in 17 (21.0%), multiple CM 10 (8.1%) and ocular abnormalities in 4 (4.9%). Thirty two (39.5%) of the patients with CM were diagnosed with CHD, out of which 24 (29.6%) had cardiac murmur. Most frequent CHD was atrioventricular septal defect in 9 (28.1%) followed by ventricular septal defect in 8 (25.0%) and patent arterial duct in 4 (12.5%). CHDs were found in all (100%) those with ocular abnormalities, in 76.5% of Down syndrome and in 14.3% of patients with ARM. Presence of murmur was significantly associated with CHD (χ2=18.0; p=0.001; OR=8.2; 95% C.1=2.8 – 24.1). Conclusion: Congenital malformations, particularly Down syndrome and ocular abnormalities, are significantly associated with CHDs. Cardiac murmurs were suggestive of CHD in children with congenital malformations.
