Background: Recent studies on bronchiectasis have revealed significant structural abnormalities and pathophysiological changes. However, there is limited research focused on pulmonary venous variability and congenital variation. Through our surgical observations, we noted that coarctation of pulmonary veins and atrophied lung volume are relatively common in bronchiectasis patients.

Background: Aortic arch obstruction and/or coarctation of aorta is uncommon (5-20%) in balanced atrioventricular septal defects. Although technically challenging, prenatal diagnosis of aortic arch obstruction in atrioventricular septal defect is critical for delivery planning and improves prenatal counselling regarding the timing of cardiac surgery. We sought to identify prenatal predictors of coarctation of aorta in atrioventricular septal defect.

Background: Congenital heart defects (CHD) being the most common congenital malformation, significantly impact mortality and morbidity in children and adults. Early detection greatly improves treatment and prognosis. Routine pulse oximetry screening and fetal echocardiography in Germany have advanced early CHD diagnosis.

Objectives: A significant number of low-birth-weight neonates are born with aortic coarctation. Previous studies of early operation on these patients have shown a high hospital mortality and recurrence at 1 year. We reviewed our data to ascertain whether modern approaches allow better outcomes for these children.

(1) ObjectiveCoarctation of the aorta (CoA) is a complex congenital heart disease. Research on differential genes in patients with CoA and other groups of aortas and investigating the pathogenesis of aorta coarctation is essential for prevention and diagnosis. This study was conducted between January 2019 and December 2021.
