We report a patient with tetralogy of Fallot, total anomalous pulmonary venous return to the right atrium, large atrial septal defect, anomalous course and termination of the superior vena cava, anomalous origin and course of the right coronary artery, and a defect in the diaphragm. This interesting combination of anomalies was managed successfully.

Electrocardiographic Changes in Pregnant Patients With Congenital Heart Disease For the STORCC Investigators.
Ann Noninvasive Electrocardiol
January 2025
Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Background: Electrocardiograms (EKGs) are routinely performed in pregnant patients with pre-existing cardiovascular disease. However, in pregnant patients with congenital heart disease (CHD), EKG changes during gestation have not been explored.
Methods: We performed a retrospective study of pregnant patients with CHD enrolled in the STORCC initiative.
Del Nido versus conventional blood cardioplegia in tetralogy of fallot repair: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Perfusion
January 2025
Department of Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery, Onassis Cardiac Surgery Center, Athens, Greece.
Objectives: Compare outcomes of Del Nido (DN) versus conventional blood cardioplegia (BC) in the surgical repair of Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF).
Methods: Medical databases were searched to identify relevant clinical trials. Meta-analysis was conducted for primary (cardiopulmonary bypass [CPB] and aortic cross-clamp [ACC] times, hospital and intensive care unit [ICU] length of stay [LOS], mechanical ventilation time) and secondary (adverse events, lactate levels, volume of additional cardioplegia) endpoints.
Analyzing exosomal miRNA profiles in tetralogy of fallot fetuses' amniotic fluid.
Sci Rep
January 2025
Department of Ultrasound, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University, Quanzhou, 362000, Fujian, China.
Amniotic fluid (AF)-derived exosomal miRNA have been explored as potential contributors to the pathogenesis of Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). This study aimed to investigate the expression profiles of AF-derived exosomal miRNAs and their potential contribution to TOF development. Exosomes were isolated from AF samples obtained from pregnant women carrying fetuses diagnosed with TOF.

Pediatr Cardiol
December 2024
Division of Cardiology, Department of Pediatrics, Stanford University School of Medicine, Lucile Packard Children's Hospital, Palo Alto, CA, USA.
Absence of the ductus arteriosus (DA) is common in tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), occurring in up to 30% of cases. Yet, the clinical course and fetal echocardiographic features are not well described, limiting prenatal counseling. This study examines the fetal echocardiographic characteristics and perinatal outcomes in children with TOF absent DA (TOF/ADA), comparing them to those with a DA (TOF/DA).

December 2024
University Teaching Hospital of Kigali, Kigali, Rwanda.
Background: While the number of cardiac surgery programs in sub-Saharan Africa are increasing, it is still insufficient. With only 0.08 pediatric cardiac surgeons per million people, few cardiac centers routinely perform pediatric cardiac surgery.
