Primary cardiac tumors are rare in childhood. The most common of these rhabdomyomas. Considering that rhabdomyomas often show spontaneous regression, close follow-up may be sufficient hemodynamically stable cases. However, significant confer a risk morbidity and mortality. Herein, we report newborn infant with multifocal treated everolimus. optimal dose the drug was 0.25 mg 2 times per day, days week. Patients inoperable symptoms candidates for everolimus treatment.

Cardiac rhabdomyomas (CRs) are the most common heart tumors in children and closely associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). This study was performed to assess presentation type, clinical course, treatment modalities, outcome of patients rhabdomyoma, TSC. We reviewed our cardiac (CRs), who had received a diagnosis TSC previously or during follow-up period between June 1996 January 2012, retrospectively. Thirty-two were evaluated among them 11 (34%) CRs. Five (45%) multiple...

The purpose of this study is to determine early myocardial dysfunction in β-thalassemia major (BTM) patients. Where the cannot be detected by conventional echocardiography, it could tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) or speckle tracking echocardiography (STE).In study, we analyzed 60 individuals, 30 whom were BTM patients and other control group. T2* magnetic resonance (MRI) was used measure cardiac iron deposition. functions evaluated TDI STE.When basal lateral left ventricular septal wall values...

Syncope is a transient loss of consciousness as result global cerebral hypoperfusion. It generally benign but may be sign pathology. The purpose this study was to analyze the frequency syncope due cardiac, neurocardiogenic, neurologic, situational, psychiatric, and other causes make differential diagnosis types according detailed medical history further investigations. We examined prospectively 268 children presented pediatric polyclinics well cardiology neurology departments (age range,...

Background: Tissue Doppler echocardiography (TDE) has been applied to the children age group; however, myocardial tissue velocities of neonates have reported by few researchers. Methods: Myocardial along longitudinal axis left ventricle were measured in two groups: 50 term within 5 days after birth and 54 healthy TDE. Sample volumes placed mitral lateral annulus (MLA), medial (MMA), basal middle parts ventricular wall (LVLW) interventricular septum (IVS). Results: The highest obtained from...

Objectives. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects coeliac disease on cardiac function in children using conventional transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and tissue Doppler (TDE). Methods. Coeliac patients were evaluated two different groups based serum endomysial antibody (EmA) titers (EmA (+) EmA (-)), data obtained by TDE studies compared between patient healthy controls. Results. There was no significant difference (-) terms TTE parameters, including ejection fraction (EF),...
