Abstract

Discussion exists whether discrete subaortic stenosis (DSS) is a congenital or acquired cardiac defect. Currently, it is regarded an acquired cardiac defect presumably secondary to altered flow patterns due to morphological abnormalities in the left ventricular outflow tract, as have been shown by some studies in the pediatric population. In this report, we demonstrated a steepened aortoseptal angle in adults with DSS without previous cardiac surgery in comparison to controls. Our results strengthen the hypothesis that altered flow patterns due to a steepened aortoseptal angle are a substrate for development of DSS in adults. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

Heart failure in adults with congenital heart disease

Margarita Brida, Daniel Lovric, Massimo Griselli, Fernando Riesgo Gil, Michael A. Gatzoulis

Summary: Heart failure is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in adult patients with congenital heart disease. The nature of the underlying congenital heart disease affects the timing and severity of heart failure, and ongoing management is necessary. Drug therapy has some effect on left ventricle failure, but there is currently a lack of data on drug therapy for right ventricle and Fontan circulation failure. Cardiac resynchronization therapy is considered as a treatment option, while mechanical circulatory support and transplantation are last resorts in highly selected patients.

Heart disease among Greenlandic children and young adults: a nationwide cohort study

Marie Tindborg, Anders Koch, Mikael Andersson, Klaus Juul, Uka Wilhjelm Geisler, Bolette Soborg, Sascha Wilk Michelsen

Summary: The incidence rates of heart disease (HD) and congenital heart disease (CHD) were compared between young Inuit populations in Greenland and Denmark. It was found that the incidence rate of HD was lower in Greenland compared to Denmark, while the incidence rates of CHD were similar in both countries. Individuals of Inuit/mixed ethnicity had a higher risk of both HD and CHD compared to non-Inuit individuals in both countries.

Survival After Cardiac Transplantation in Adults With Single-Ventricle Congenital Heart Disease

Syed Shahyan Bakhtiyar, Sara Sakowitz, Konmal Ali, Nikhil L. Chervu, Arjun Verma, Ming-Sing Si, David D'Alessandro, Peyman Benharash

Summary: The study evaluates the survival rate after heart transplantation in adults with single and biventricular CHD and compares it to that of non-CHD transplant recipients. Single-ventricle physiology is associated with higher short-term mortality, but 10-year conditional survival is similar for biventricular CHD patients and most single-ventricle CHD patients, and notably better for biventricular CHD patients compared to non-CHD heart transplant recipients.

Heart Failure Risk Predictions and Prognostic Factors in Adults With Congenital Heart Diseases

Patryk Leczycki, Maciej Banach, Marek Maciejewski, Agata Bielecka-Dabrowa

Summary: In recent decades, there has been a significant increase in the number of adults with congenital heart diseases (ACHD), necessitating thorough evaluation of their current condition. There is currently a lack of universal parameters or scales to easily assess the deterioration of ACHD patients' condition, emphasizing the need to identify widely available, cost-effective, and user-friendly factors. Studies have shown potential prognostic factors including echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging, cardiopulmonary exercise testing, and biomarkers. However, further research is needed to create a specific assessment panel for patients with specific congenital heart diseases.

Guiding Interventions for Secondary Tricuspid Regurgitation: Follow the Intricate Interplay Between Form and Function

Rahi S. Alipour S. Symakani, Beatrijs Bartelds, Daphne Merkus, Ad J. J. C. Bogers, Yannick J. H. J. Taverne

Summary: Secondary tricuspid regurgitation (TR) can progress and lead to right ventricular failure and end-organ damage, despite treatment of the underlying disease. Surgical correction, though curative, has historically had poor outcomes due to delayed diagnosis and lack of clear surgical indications. The current guidelines are conservative and show inconsistencies, but there is a trend towards a more aggressive approach and emerging transcatheter options.

Summary: Routine CT-screening increases the rate of incidental findings, primarily by identifying more pulmonary findings requiring follow-up. Incidental findings are more prevalent in patients with a history of smoking, and preoperative CT may increase the yield of identifying lung cancer in these patients. Incidental findings, but not specifically the use of routine CT, are associated with delay of surgery.
