Abstract A previously healthy 15-year-old teenage boy was admitted for fever and heart failure. Myocarditis suspected, endomyocardial biopsy revealed giant cell myocarditis. Immunosuppressive treatment initiated, with excellent response. plausible link to previous leptospirosis identified. At 18-month follow-up, left ventricular function is normal. Only one other reported case of paediatric myocarditis had such a favourable outcome.
Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: None. Background and Aims Data regarding long-term follow-up radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) accessory pathways (APs) in patients (P) with Ebstein's anomaly are limited. This type procedure is considered challenging due to multiple broad APs. The present study aimed describe the electrophysiological features APs P anomaly, report our RFCA experience an open-window electroanatomic 3D mapping using high-density catheters these...
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is an extremely common and well-established procedure in adults which rarely performed children. We present a case of successful left main artery stenting small infant with congenital anomaly. highlight the technical challenges performing PCI patient, risks antithrombotic prophylaxis this age group, importance combined work adult pediatric interventional cardiologist.
