Uhl's anomaly: rare but does exist.

A 17-year-old boy presented with facial puffiness and swelling in the lower limbs for 6 months and one episode of syncope 15 days earlier. Transthoracic echocardiography showed a dilated right atrium and right ventricle with right ventricular systolic dysfunction. The free wall of the right ventricle was thinned out and devoid of myocardium and trabeculations.

Unusual systemic venous Collateral channels to left atrium causing desaturation after Fontan operation closed percutaneously.

We present an unusual cause of progressive cyanosis in a child appearing 2 years after successful Fontan surgery for tetralogy of Fallot with hypoplastic right ventricle. The cause of cyanosis was identified as one large venous channel draining into the left atrium. The channel was closed by Amplatzer vascular plug resulting in improvement of oxygen saturation.

Intermediate and long-term followup of percutaneous device closure of fossa ovalis atrial septal defect by the Amplatzer septal occluder in a cohort of 529 patients.

Objectives: The aim of present study is to analyze the intermediate and long-term follow up results of percutaneous closure of fossa ovalis atrial septal defect (ASD) with Amplatzer septal occluder (ASO) in a large cohort of patients including children and adults.

Methods: Between May 1998 and July 2008, 529 patients (age group 2-77 years, median 28 years) underwent successful device closure with an ASO at single tertiary referral cardiac center in India..

Myocarditis presenting as junctional ectopic tachycardia.

Junctional ectopic tachycardia (JET) is an unusual arrhythmia in children. It is usually described as a congenital tachycardia or as occurring in the postoperative setting. Here we report the case of an 8-year-old girl who presented with JET in the context of viral myocarditis and its later subsidence which could have been in response to Carvedilol therapy.

64-slice multidetector-row computed tomographic angiography for evaluating congenital heart disease.

This study aimed to assess critically the role of 64-slice multidetector-row computed tomographic (MDCT) angiography for evaluating congenital heart disease. The study enrolled 60 consecutive patients (median age, 4.7 years; median weight, 16.
