Blood Speckle Imaging as a Novel Adjunct in the Prenatal Assessment of Congenital Heart Disease: Insights From Aortic Arch Pathology and Septal Defects

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Blood Speckle Imaging (BSI) is an innovative fetal echocardiography technique that enables the acquisition of high frame rate images and tracks moving blood cells. In a case initially suspected of interrupted aortic arch, BSI provided crucial additional insights, leading to a revised diagnosis.

Fetal Cardiac Extracellular Matrix Incorporated Into Silk Scaffolds Leads to Beneficial Cardiovascular Patch Remodeling in a Large Animal Model of RVOT Surgical Repair

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Materials Research Part B: Applied Biomaterials, Volume 114, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Approximately 50% of patients that undergo surgical reconstruction to repair the congenital heart defect tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) experience adverse effects by the age of 50. These effects can be linked to the poor healing response elicited by the synthetic materials in the commonly used cardiovascular patches.

Abstract The clinical application of prenatal exome sequencing (pES) for fetal structural anomalies is relatively new. Although a prenatal genetic diagnosis has been shown to have high clinical and personal utility for families, nearly 70% of pregnancies undergoing pES will receive nondiagnostic results.

Sudden Death of a 17‐Month‐Old Chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) due to a Congenital Undiagnosed Ventricular Septal Defect [PDF]

open access: yesJ Med Primatol
ABSTRACT Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a congenital defect that is frequently observed in humans. We report the sudden death of an infant chimpanzee due to a congenital undiagnosed VSD. During necropsy, the examination of the heart revealed a VSD, dilatation of the left ventricle and myocardial hypertrophy of the right ventricle.
