Fetal hypoplastic left heart syndrome: key factors shaping prognosis.

Objectives: The purpose of the study is to estimate factors affecting survival in prenatally diagnosed hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) and echocardiographic features predicting poor prognosis and early neonatal death.

Methods: This study was designed as a retrospective cohort study. Cases of hypoplastic left heart syndrome diagnosed in the prenatal period between 2014 and 2023 were extracted from electronic medical records.

Prenatal diagnosis of right aortic arch: associated anomalies and fetal prognosis according to different subtypes.

Objectives: Right aortic arch (RAA) is a rare anomaly with an incidence of 0.1 % in the adult population and low-risk fetuses. Our aim in this study was to evaluate associated anomalies and conditions according to subtypes.

Infantile hemangiomatosis, a rare cause of high-output heart failure and pulmonary hypertension in the newborn baby: a case report.

Infantile hemangiomatosis is among the most common vascular tumours of childhood that is generally accepted as benign. Some cases may have multiple hemangiomas with organ involvement, especially of the liver. This case report will present the clinical and laboratory findings obtained during the treatment and follow-up of a 36-day-old female baby with hemangiomatosis with diffuse liver involvement, high-output heart failure, and pulmonary hypertension.

Intriguing new faces of Covid-19: persisting clinical symptoms and cardiac effects in children.

Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate the persisting Covid-19-related symptoms of the cases included in our study and to assess their cardiac findings to determine the impact of Covid-19 on children's cardiovascular health.

Methods: In this study, 121 children between the ages of 0- and 18 with Covid-19 were evaluated based on their history, blood pressure values, and electrocardiography and echocardiography results. These findings were compared with the findings of the control group which consisted of 95 healthy cases who were in the same age range as the study group and did not have Covid-19.
