Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome: A Review

Cardiology in Review, 2022
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is a rare and poorly understood congenital disorder featuring a univentricular myocardium, invariably resulting in early childhood death if left untreated. The process to palliate this congenital cardiomyopathy is of high complexity and may include invasive interventions in the first week of life. The preferred treatment

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1990
HLHS is a complex developmental malformation of the left ventricle, aorta, and associated valves. Survival beyond neonatal life is the exception in untreated infants. The prognosis, however, is no longer hopeless. Newer surgical strategies of staged palliative reconstruction and heart replacement by transplantation appear promising.

Imaging for Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome

World Journal for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery, 2022
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome is a complex congenital heart defect with clinical presentation in the neonatal period. Echocardiography is the main diagnostic tool and allows detailed examination of the underlying anatomy and physiology and both pre and postnatally.

Outcomes in Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2020
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is a complex form of congenital heart disease defined by anatomic and functional inadequacy of the left side of the heart with nonviability of the left ventricle to perform systemic perfusion. Lethal if not treated, a strategy for survival currently is well established, with continuing improvement in outcomes over
