Background Children with Down syndrome (DS) have a high risk of cardiac disease that may prompt consideration for heart transplantation (HTx). However, in patients DS is rarely reported. This project aimed to collect and describe waitlist post- HTx outcomes children DS. Methods Results retrospective case series listed HTx. Pediatric centers were identified by their participation 2 international registries reporting patient providing detailed demographic, medical, surgical, posttransplant...
The progressive risk of graft failure in pediatric heart transplantation (PHT) necessitates close surveillance for rejection and coronary allograft vasculopathy (CAV). current gold standard via invasive angiography is costly, imperfect associated with complications. Our goal was to assess the safety feasibility a comprehensive multi-parametric CMR protocol regadenoson stress perfusion PHT evaluate associations clinical history CAV. We performed retrospective review 26 recipients who...
Pediatric polyarteritis nodosa is rare systemic necrotizing arteritis involving small- and medium-sized muscular arteries characterized by aneurysmal dilatations the vessel wall. Aneurysms associated with are common in visceral arteries; however intracranial aneurysms have also been reported can be central nervous system symptoms, significant morbidity, mortality. To our knowledge extracranial involvement of vertebral has not but potential to deleterious due fact that they supply...
CAV is a major cause of mortality in PHTx patients. Research on echocardiographic indices to detect focuses primarily ventricular function and less known about RAF. Thus, we sought evaluate RAF patients with CAV. For secondary analysis, compared between control evaluated respect rejection surgical type.We retrospectively echocardiography derived RA strain recipients <18 years old >1 year from time transplant. The phases included, reservoir (εs), conduit (εe), pump (εa), respective rate (SRs,...
Chronic graft failure and cumulative rejection history in pediatric heart transplant recipients (PHTR) are associated with myocardial fibrosis on endomyocardial biopsy (EMB). Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) is a validated, non-invasive method to detect via the presence of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE). In adult recipients, LGE increased risk future adverse clinical events including hospitalization death. We describe prevalence, pattern, extent CMR cohort PHTR its...
The objective of this study was to assess the influence left ventricular (LV) geometric pattern on coronary vasomotion in patients with essential hypertension. We studied 34 hypertensive patients, who had never been treated, angiographically normal arteries. Patients were classified into four LV patterns by echocardiography: normal, concentric remodeling, eccentric hypertrophy, and hypertrophy. responses anterior descending artery vasoactive agents (acetylcholine, isosorbide dinitrate,...
