AI Article Synopsis
- Advances in surgical techniques for congenital heart disease are improving patient survival rates and quality of life.
- Advances in imaging technology, like CT and MRI, are increasingly used to monitor these patients post-surgery.
- The review is divided into two parts, with part 1 focusing on median sternotomy, its complications, palliative methods, and complex repairs in the treatment process.
Article Abstract
Advances in the surgical management of congenital heart disease have led to enhanced patient survival and quality of life. Improvements in technology in computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging have resulted in increasing use of cross-sectional imaging in these patients. Perioperative care in these patients requires that radiologists have an understanding of the surgical treatment and the resultant postoperative anatomy. Because many of these patients with treated congenital heart disease are being followed into the 4th and 5th decades of life, this is information that will fall within the domain of the radiologist who deals with adults. This review, which is presented in two parts, covers the major surgical procedures used for the treatment of congenital heart disease, and will be presented in two parts. In part 1, median sternotomy and its complications, palliative procedures, and complex repairs are discussed.

Electronic address:
Objective: To test whether an artificial intelligence (AI) deep neural network (DNN)-derived analysis of the 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) can distinguish patients with long QT syndrome (LQTS) from those with acquired QT prolongation.
Methods: The study cohort included all patients with genetically confirmed LQTS evaluated in the Windland Smith Rice Genetic Heart Rhythm Clinic and controls from Mayo Clinic's ECG data vault comprising more than 2.5 million patients.
Abnormal Venous Flow in Pregnant Women with Mild Right Ventricular Dysfunction in Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot: A Clinical Model for Organ Dysfunction in Preeclampsia.

Pregnant women with congenital heart disease carry a high risk of complications, especially when cardiac function is suboptimal. Increasing evidence suggests that impaired right ventricular (RV) function has a negative effect on placental function, possibly through venous congestion. We report a case series of hepatic and renal venous flow patterns in pregnant women with right ventricular dysfunction after repaired Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF), relative to those observed in normal pregnancy and preeclampsia.

Systemic-to-pulmonary collaterals (SPCs) are common in congenital heart disease (CHD). Particularly in single ventricle anatomy and Fontan circulation, SPC can both complicate the postoperative course and lead to clinical deterioration in the long term. The treatment of SPC is controversial.

Introduction: The relationship between diet of mothers, including supplementation of vitamin D and Long Chain Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids (LC-PUFA), and the prevalence of congenital heart defects (CHD) in the fetus has not been sufficiently studied. The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between the intake of vitamin D and LC-PUFA by mother (from diet and with supplementation, including its time of implementation and applied dose), and the risk of CHD in the fetus.
Methods: This was a case-control study with the participation of a total of 79 women with prenatally diagnosed CHD in the fetus and 121 women without CHD in the fetus.

Background And Objective: Cardiovascular disease (CVD), one of the chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs), is defined as a cardiac and vascular disorder that includes coronary heart disease, heart failure, peripheral arterial disease, cerebrovascular disease (stroke), congenital heart disease, rheumatic heart disease, and elevated blood pressure (hypertension). Having CVD increases the mortality rate. Emotional stress, an indirect indicator associated with CVD, can often manifest through facial expressions.
