Changes in cardiac morphometry in fetuses with lower urinary tract obstruction

Pregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Objective Fetal lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO) is associated with significant perinatal morbidity due to oligohydramnios, pulmonary hypoplasia, and progressive renal dysfunction. In addition to these well‐known sequelae, LUTO has been linked to various cardiac abnormalities on prenatal imaging, including cardiomegaly; ventricular ...

Echocardiography, Bile Acids and Spleen Stiffness to Rule Out High‐Risk Varices in Children With Biliary Atresia

Liver International, Volume 46, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Detecting gastroesophageal varices with a high risk of bleeding (HRV) in children with biliary atresia requires endoscopies from an early age to apply primary prophylaxis of bleeding. However, repeated endoscopies are invasive and costly.

Recurrent Constellations of Embryonic Malformations (RCEM): Teratogenicity Linked to Transient Hypoxia and Hormone Pregnancy Tests Agrees With RCEM and Suggest a Reactive Oxygen Species Pathogenesis

Birth Defects Research, Volume 118, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background No consistent genetic etiology has been found for a group of six different conditions in humans with multiple malformations called “recurrent constellations of embryonic malformations” (RCEM). Recent studies indicate hypoxia/reoxygenation and generation Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) as an underlying mechanism for RCEM with the ...

THE NEW CONCEPT OF UNIVENTRICULAR HEART

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2014
The concept of univentricular heart moved from hearts with only one ventricle connected with atria (double inlet ventricle or absent AV connection) to hearts not amenable to biventricular repair, namely hearts with two ventricles unable to sustain ...

Balloon dilation of stenotic nonvalved conduits after Fontan operation

The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 1998
The Fontan operation is used to supply a ventriculo-arterial connection in patients with tricuspid atresia. An important complication is the obstruction of the conduit that may necessitate reoperation.
