The Amplatzer duct occluder (ADO) has been used with success to close large patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), but some problems exist especially hypertensive PDAs, such as incomplete closure, haemolysis, left pulmonary artery stenosis, obstruction of the descending aorta and progressive vascular disease.We analysed a group 168 patients isolated PDA systolic pressure (PSAP) > or =50 mm Hg. Mean age was 10.3 +/- 14.3 years (median 3.9), diameter 6.4 2.9 5.9), PASP 63.5 16.2 Hg 60), Qp/Qs 2.7 1.2...
Background . The relevance of TBX20 gene in heart development has been demonstrated many animal models, but there are few works that try to elucidate the effect mutations human congenital diseases. In these studies, all missense associated with atrial septal defect (ASD) were found DNA-binding T-box domain, none transcriptional activator domain. Methods We search for a group patients ASD or ventricular (VSD) using High Resolution Melting (HRM) method and DNA sequencing. Results report three...
Consistent with the mission of World Society for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery to promote health care children congenital heart disease all around world, a Mexican Association Specialists in Disease (abbreviated Spanish as AMECC) was created Mexico 2008. Our efforts were coordinated those National Health Secretary objective being implementation national plan regionalization patients disease. To improve our knowledge related technologic human resources management disease, we...
Percutaneous closure of patent ductus arteriosus has become the treatment choice in many centres. In patients with large ducts and pulmonary hypertension, transcatheter been achieved success using Amplatzer Duct Occluder or even Muscular Ventricular Septal Defect Occluder.We present a series 17 hypertensive who were treated an Occluder. The group had 11 female (64.7%) mean age 18.6±12.1 years.The haemodynamic anatomical data are as follows: artery systolic pressure 71.3±31.8 mmHg, to...
Delayed sternal closure (DSC) after cardiac surgery is a therapeutic option in the treatment of severely impaired heart pediatric surgery.A single-center retrospective review all bypass surgeries performed over 10-year period (2003-2012).Of total 2325 patients registered our database, DSC group included 259 cases (11%), and remaining 2066 (89%) constituted control (PSC). RACHS-1 risk was higher for (74% had score 3 or 4) than PSC (82% 2 3). The most frequent diagnosis transposition great...
The TBX20 gene has a key role during cardiogenesis, and it been related to epigenetic mechanisms in congenital heart disease (CHD). purpose of this study was assess the association between DNA methylation status septal defects. seven CpG sites promoter analyzed through pyrosequencing as quantitative method 48 patients with defects 104 individuals patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). average higher than PDA (p < 0.001). High levels were associated risk (OR = 4.59, 95% CI 1.57-13.44, p 0.005). ROC...
Repair of truncus arteriosus communis (TAC) in the neonatal and early infant period has become a standard practice. We report our experience on primary repair TAC with bovine pericardial-valved woven Dacron conduit as an alternative procedure to homografts, focus midterm results.From January 2001 December 2007, 15 patients mean age 1.5 years (range 3 months 8 years), underwent simple TAC. Cases cardiogenic shock, complex-associated cardiac lesions, or adverse anatomy truncal valve were...
Endothelial progenitor cells and circulating endothelial have been proposed as useful markers of severity disease progression in certain vascular diseases, including pulmonary arterial hypertension. Our study focused on evaluating the levels patients with congenital left-to-right shunts hypertension undergoing definitive repair. (identified by simultaneous co-expression CD45dim, CD34 + KDR2 surface antibodies) inherent antibodies CD45-, CD31+, CD146 CD105+) were prospectively measured...
Currently, there is a spreading worldwide tendency to characterize health issues and propose alternative solutions via the creation of computerized databases. The aim this study was present results in database pediatric cardiac surgeries developed under auspices Mexican Association Specialists Congenital Heart Diseases (Asociación Mexicana de Especialistas en Cardiopatías Congénitas A.C) coordinated by collegiate group Pediatric Cardiology Surgery as petitioned National Institutes Health...
The TBX5 gene regulates morphological changes during heart development, and it has been associated with epigenetic abnormalities observed in congenital defects (CHD). aim of this research was to evaluate the association between DNA methylation levels promoter septal defects. six CpG sites were evaluated using pyrosequencing analysis 35 patients 48 controls. Average higher individuals than controls (p < 0.004). In five sites, we also found 0.05). High (OR = 3.91; 95% CI 1.02–14.8; p...
The aim of the study was to analyze surgical outcome patients with total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) who underwent cardiac surgery.A retrospective carried out. Patients diagnosis TAPVC undergoing surgery at National Institute Cardiology Ignacio Chávez, from January 1, 2003 and June 30, 2019 were included. Descriptive statistics calculated, as well a bivariate analysis variables associated mortality. A logistic regression model included determine risk factors main survival...
Background: The indications for pediatric coronary revascularization are diverse. There a large proportion of patients with sequelae severe inflammatory diseases such as Kawasaki disease, and other less common causes. Methods: Retrospective review ten undergoing artery bypass surgery from January 2004 to December 2016. Results: Ten children adolescents ranging in age 2 17 (median, 6) years at operation were followed up long 13 median follow-up years. surgical include ischemia symptoms and/or...
