Journal ArticleDOI

Atrioventricular valve repair in patients with functional single-ventricle physiology: impact of ventricular and valve function and morphology on survival and reintervention.

TL;DR: Survival was lower in single-ventricle patients operated on for atrioventricular valve insufficiency than in case-matched controls and lower grade ventricular function and ventricular dilation correlated with death and repair failure, suggesting that timing of intervention may affect outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hybrid Versus Norwood Strategies for Single-Ventricle Palliation

TL;DR: Survival after stage II palliation and subsequent Fontan completion is equivalent between the groups, and the hybrid group had a higher PA reintervention rate and smaller PA size.
Journal ArticleDOI

Left atrial decompression during venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for left ventricular failure in children: current strategy and clinical outcomes.

TL;DR: Earlier timing of LA decompression appeared to be associated with a high probability of weaning from ECMO and reasonable LV functional recovery and subsequent intensive care unit and hospital survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adverse Biventricular Remodeling in Isolated Right Ventricular Hypertension Is Mediated by Increased Transforming Growth Factor–β1 Signaling and Is Abrogated by Angiotensin Receptor Blockade

TL;DR: In conclusion, isolated RV afterload induces biventricular fibrosis and apoptosis, which are reduced by angiotensin receptor blockade, which is mediated through TGF-β1-CTGF and ET-1 pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Stenting in Tetralogy of Fallot Infants With Risk Factors for Early Primary Repair.

TL;DR: Right ventricular outflow tract stenting of symptomatic tetralogy of Fallot with poor anatomy (small pulmonary arteries) and adverse factors (multiple comorbidities, low weight) relieves cyanosis and defers surgical repair in more favorable patients.
