Congenital Intraoral Synechiae: A Scoping Review of Airway, Feeding, and Surgical Management
Abstract Objective To map the existing literature on congenital intraoral synechiae and summarize reported anatomic patterns, clinical presentation, associated anomalies/syndromes, and outcomes to inform standardized diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. Data Sources PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, Web of Science, and Google Scholar were searched from January

New Pulmonary Valvuloplasty Technique by Use of an Hourglass-Shaped Balloon in 3 Adults with Severe Pulmonary Valve Stenosis [PDF]
Percutaneous balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty is the preferred therapy for pulmonary valve stenosis. However, the designs of the cylindrical balloons historically used for valvuloplasty have limitations, especially in patients who have large pulmonary ...

Sleep‐disordered breathing in valvular heart disease: A Modifiable comorbidity
Abstract Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) is highly prevalent among patients with valvular heart disease (VHD) and is independently associated with adverse clinical outcomes. The two major phenotypes—obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and central sleep apnea (CSA)—exhibit distinct distributions across VHD subtypes. CSA predominates in severe aortic stenosis,

Valve-sparing repair with skeletonization of the pulmonary annulus for tetralogy of Fallot [PDF]
Pulmonary valve preservation in tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repair is one of the most challenging issues. Herein, we describe a novel valve-sparing technique for TOF repair that primarily consists of skeletonization of the anterior part of the ...

Combined Transcatheter Closure of Atrial Septal Defect and Pulmonary Valve Balloon Dilation [PDF]
Critical pulmonary valve stenosis (CPVS) and atrial septal defect (ASD) is an uncommon form of congenital heart disease. Concurrent transcatheter pulmonary valvuplasty and closure of secundum atrial septal defect appears to be an interesting alternative ...

Tetralogy of Fallot with absent pulmonary valve syndrome : an imaging challenge [PDF]
Congenital absence of pulmonary valve syndrome (APV) represents a fascinating and unique variant of congenital heart disease. It was Chever in 1847 who first described this unique structural heart defect.

ABSTRACT Sex chromosome aneuploidies represent a heterogeneous group of chromosomal conditions, in which phenotypic complexity generally increases with the number of supernumerary sex chromosomes. While Turner syndrome and sex chromosome trisomies are relatively well characterized, less is known about congenital malformations in sex chromosome ...

Delayed Amplatzer device closure of atrial septal defect for persistent cyanosis after surgical correction of severe pulmonary stenosis in early infancy [PDF]
This article presents two patients who had delayed transcatheter closure of secundum atrial septal defects for persistent cyanosis after surgical repair of severe pulmonary stenosis.
