Abstract Fontan-Associated Liver Disease (FALD) is a dramatically emerging problem even if not precisely defined in term of debated diagnosis and surveillance protocols. We analyze FALD prevalence, clinical impact implications European cohort patients. It’s retrospective observational multicenter study including Fontan patients operated between 1990 2022. Anatomical, clinical, surgical liver-related data were collected, defining as spectrum time-related structural–functional liver...
Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a pediatric hyperinflammatory related to severe acute respiratory coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection whose epidemiology not very well known at present. The objective of the study was better understand incidence MIS-C Apulia region southern Italy. Our primary goal estimate newly identified cases aged 0–18 years, during period six months, encompassing second pandemic wave. We also analyzed characteristics our cohort terms clinical...
Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with aspirin and a P2Y12 receptor inhibitor is the cornerstone of pharmacologic management patients acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and/or those receiving stents. Long-term (>1 year) DAPT may further reduce risk stent thrombosis after percutaneous intervention (PCI) decrease occurrence non-stent-related ischaemic events in ACS. Nevertheless, compared alone, extended use plus increase bleeding that have been strongly linked to adverse outcomes including...
Objectives The objective of this investigation is to evaluate the safety, impact endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) results in myocarditis management and incidence different etiologies a pediatric population. Background Although EMB an established diagnostic tool suspected myocarditis, there lack clear guidelines for patients, particularly infants. Methods We performed retrospective database review subsequent outcomes analysis from five Italian cardiology centers identify patients aged 0–18 years...
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects breastfeeding on risk for fever after routine immunizations. METHODS: A prospective cohort conducted at a pediatric vaccination center in Naples, Italy. mothers infants scheduled receive immunizations were instructed how measure and record infant temperature evening subsequent 3 days. information about incidence obtained by telephone third day vaccination. relative relation type estimated multivariate analyses that adjusted...
Balloon angioplasty may be performed as the first treatment of aortic coarctation to stabilize newborns too sick for immediate surgery. The issue vascular access is key successful critical newborns. In our study, we argue that lesser-known axillary route safest and most effective balloon in infants with coarctation. To support this argument, present case eight unstable complex heart diseases, who were successfully treated percutaneous intervention through artery. This series followed by an...
This report describes the use of Edwards Sapien THV in a patient who had short regurgitant/stenotic homograft with early bifurcation stenoses pulmonary arteries. A 48‐mm AndraStent was positioned right artery‐homograft jailing left artery (LPA). To have an unobstructed access to LPA, stent strut leading LPA broken using high‐pressure balloon. 23‐mm stented just proximal origin resolution stenosis and regurgitation. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
Cocoon is defined as a strategy to reduce the risk for transmission of pertussis newborn infants by vaccinating household members including parents and siblings. Programmatic challenges make implementation cocooning program complex. At local health care unit "ASL Napoli 1 Centro," one-year pilot project evaluate contacts adherence cocoon was started on May, 1st 2011. Healthcare providers (HCPs) offered free dTpa booster dose newborns (mothers were immunized after delivery) contacts. Until...
: The worldwide response to the current COVID-19 pandemic has been focused on how prevent disease and protect high-risk patient from a potentially lethal infection. Several consensus guidelines articles have published dealing with cardiac systemic hypertension, heart transplant or failure. Very little is known about patients, both in pediatric as well adult age, congenital disease. peculiar physiology of native, repaired palliated defect deserves specialized care. Hereby we describe early...
: The usual surgical practice after repair of a Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection (TAPVC) is to ligate the vertical vein (VV). Many surgeons find it expedient leave VV unligated reduce pulmonary arterial pressure, decrease perioperative hypertensive crisis, provide better hemodynamics postoperatively (1), and enable adaptation cardiac chambers new workload. Afterwards, may cause significant left-to-right shunt, likewise an atrial septal defect, mandating later ligation or device...

Abstract Introduction The transoesophageal electrophysiological study (SETE) is a simple, semi–invasive and highly reliable test for risk stratification in patients with ventricular pre–excitation. In paediatric subjects, symptoms may be nonspecific or poorly reported; hence the usefulness of guiding therapeutic strategy. guidelines also suggest performing it all asymptomatic preexcitation above 8 years age.Purpose study: to evaluate inducibility re–entry tachycardia at SETE Materials...
The survival of pediatric cancer patients has significantly increased thanks to the improvement oncological treatments. Therefore, it is utmost importance manage short- and long-term cardiovascular complications. In cardio-oncology, there are no recognized guidelines as in adults. Several recommendations many indications have been derived from data obtained adult population, resulting greater discrepancies clinical management patients. aim this position paper Italian Society Pediatric...
