The era of surgical correction of congenital heart defects began in 1938 when Robert E. Gross successfully ligated a patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in a 7-year-old child at Boston Children’s Hospital.1 This historical milestone was followed by several different “closed-heart” operations for children with congenital heart defects, including the Blalock ...

Adult congenital heart disease

Anaesthesia & Intensive Care Medicine, 2012
Abstract Continued advances in the understanding and management of congenital heart disease (CHD) mean that over 90% of children born with CHD now survive to adulthood. This in turn results in greater numbers of adult patients presenting for medical and surgical care at non-specialist centres. A simple classification of adult congenital heart disease (

Congenital heart disease in congenital hemihypertrophy

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 1971
A hitherto unreported syndrome of severe congenital heart disease in association with congenital hemihypertrophy is described in two children. One of these presented with Fallot’s tetralogy and the other with a large ventricular septal defect. The need for a careful examination of the heart in cases of asymmetry of the two halves of the body is ...

The utility of echocardiography in the evaluation of congenital cardiac disease is well established. The following discussion will be devoted to the application of single dimensional equipment in the assessment of selected congenital defects which will include secundum atrial defects, endocardial cushion defects, tetralogy of Fallot, Ebstein's anomaly ...
