Superior vena cava syndrome after pulsatile bidirectional Glenn shunt procedure: Perioperative implications

open access: yesAnnals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2009
Bidirectional superior cavopulmonary shunt (bidirectional Glenn shunt) is generally performed in many congenital cardiac anomalies where complete two ventricle circulations cannot be easily achieved.

Late Follow-up of Patients Submitted to Total Cavopulmonary Derivation: Clinical Aspects, Reinterventions, and Complications Interfering in Morbidity and Mortality

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery
Objective: To identify main complications in outpatient follow-up, as well as factors before or during operation that may interfere in patient's evolution. Methods: Retrospective study of patients submitted to total cavopulmonary shunt with extracardiac

Exercise MR of Skeletal Muscles, the Heart, and the Brain

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 61, Issue 2, Page 535-560, February 2025.
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging (MRI) is routinely used to evaluate organ morphology and pathology in the human body at rest or in combination with pharmacological stress as an exercise surrogate. With MR during actual physical exercise, we can assess functional characteristics of tissues and organs under real‐life stress conditions.

Creation of Transcatheter Aortopulmonary and Cavopulmonary Shunts Using Magnetic Catheters: Feasibility Study in Swine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Surgical shunts are the basic form of palliation for many types of congenital heart disease. The Glenn shunt (superior cavopulmonary connection) and central shunt (aortopulmonary connection) represent surgical interventions that could potentially be ...

Children With Congenital Heart Disease and the Canadian 24‐Hour Movement Guidelines: A Scoping Review

open access: yesCJC Pediatric &Congenital Heart Disease, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 34-48, February 2025.
Graphical abstract Abstract Factors such as physical activity (PA), sedentary time, screen time, and sleep affect the holistic health of children with congenital heart disease (CHD). Despite this, their proximity to reaching the Canadian 24‐hour movement guidelines is unknown.

Takedown of cavopulmonary shunt at biventricular repair

open access: yes, 2014
With advances in valve repair and ventricular recruitment strategies, patients initially palliated with single ventricle physiology have been increasingly brought to biventricular circulation.

Cyanotic heart disease due to a hypoplastic right ventricle with pulmonary valve atresia, an intact ventricular septum, with atrial level shunting in a day‐old Arabian foal

open access: yesVeterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 12, Issue 4, December 2024.
Abstract An 8‐h‐old Arabian foal was presented for evaluation of progressive weakness since birth. The foal presented laterally recumbent with pale and muddy mucous membranes, a grade III/VI left basilar murmur, and an irregularly, irregular rhythm. Transthoracic echocardiogram along with an electrocardiogram (EKG) was performed.

Glenn circulation causes early and progressive shunting in a surgical model of pulmonary arteriovenous malformations

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 12, Issue 22, November 2024.
Unilateral Glenn circulation in rats phenocopies clinical features of single ventricle pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (PAVMs). Post‐Glenn PAVMs exhibit early and progressive intrapulmonary shunting, mildly impaired oxygenation, and normal ventilation.

Delayed retrieval of embolized ductal stent: A surgical challenge

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Cardiology
Retrieval of embolized ductal stents from the pulmonary or systemic circulation can be challenging. Most children benefit from surgical shunts in such scenarios.

Perturbations of tryptophan catabolism via the kynurenine pathway are associated with stage 2 postoperative outcomes in single ventricle heart disease

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 12, Issue 22, November 2024.
Abstract Preliminary evidence suggests perturbations of the kynurenine pathway (KP) of tryptophan metabolism in infants with single ventricle heart disease (SVHD). In 72 infants with SVHD undergoing stage 2 palliation (S2P) and 41 controls, we quantified serum KP metabolite concentrations via tandem mass spectroscopy pre‐S2P and post‐S2P at 2, 24, and ...
