Background Previous small sample studies suggested that elevated altitudes might be associated with the incidence of cardiovascular diseases. However, it remains uncertain whether high altitudes (over 3000 m above sea level) are related to congenital heart disease. We therefore explored the prevalence of congenital heart disease in a large cohort of students in the world's largest prefecture-level city with the highest altitude. Methods This cross-sectional study included 84,302 student participants (boys 52.12%, girls 47.88%, with an average age of 10.62 ± 3.33 years). Data were extracted from the screening results among different altitude area schools in Nagqu from June 2016 to August 2017. Students were first screened by performing a physical examination consisting of cardiac auscultations and clinical manifestation screenings. An echocardiography was performed to confirm and identify the subtype of congenital heart disease. Results The prevalence of congenital heart disease among students in Nagqu, Tibet, was 5.21‰ (439 cases). The most common congenital heart disease type was patent ductus arteriosus, representing 66.3% of congenital heart diseases diagnosed in this study, followed by atrial septal defect and ventricular septal defect, representing 20.3% and 9.1% of congenital heart diseases, respectively. Students living in higher altitudes were significantly more prone to have congenital heart disease than students in locations with lower altitudes. The prevalence of congenital heart disease in girls was found to be higher than that of boys. Conclusions The correlation between congenital heart disease and increased altitude is noteworthy. This study's results are the first big data epidemiological investigation to confirm that high altitude is a significant environmental risk factor for congenital heart disease, especially patent ductus arteriosus. Furthermore, the results provide additional support to make a diagnostic and treatment plan to prevent congenital heart disease in high altitude areas.

It was with great interest that I read Moss' excellent summary of data concerning congenital heart disease.1 Of particular interest were the well-taken references concerning Gross' "atrial well" and Lillehei's use of crosscirculation. In that vein, however, there is one inaccuracy in the article. In speaking of repair of patent ductus arteriosus, Moss states that it represents "the oldest of all heart operations." Although the 1939 report by Gross2 did signal the onset of surgical therapy of congenital heart disease, the first successful heart operation was performed by Ludwig Rehn of Frankfurt, Germany in 1896,3 only seven years after Theodor Billroth had declared that, "A surgeon who would attempt such an operation should lose the respect of his colleagues."

Congenital heart disease is an interesting area which present a great various arrangement of the cardiac stucture. We present a rare case of 11 months old male with complex congenital heart disease consisted of Double Inlet Left Ventricle (DILV), Double Outlet Left Ventricle (DOLV) with Malposition of Great Arteries, Inlet Ventricle Septal Defect (VSD) and Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA).Patient was an eleven months old male who was admitted in our institution for cardiac operation. He was diagnosed with congenital heart disease since three days old with initial presentation of cyanosis when he was crying. His physical growth was retarded but his developmental Milestones was considered normal. On admission, his oxygen saturation was 88% with ambient air. The diagnosis was confirmed by echocardiography. He was planned to undergo staging surgery which would end to Fontan Procedure. Pulmonary Artery (PA) banding was performed to reduce blood flow to pulmonary circulation, distribute more blood from the left ventricle to aorta and systemic circulation and prepare for bidirectional Glenn Shunt procedure one year later and Fontan procedure a year after that.
