1. Adult Congenital Heart Disease Outpatient Clinic. Descriptive Analysis of A 12-Year Experience in Brazil
Abstract Objective: Description of adult congenital heart disease (CHD) outpatient characteristics has not been reported and several aspects regarding these patients require attention. We describe the 12-year experience of a Brazilian unit. Methods: The main characteristics of 1168 patients were reviewed annotating for each patient age, gender, city of r

4. Resultado do tratamento cirurgico da fibrilacao atrial cronica / Results of the surgical treatment of chronic atrial fibrillation
Objective – Report clinical experience in surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) by Cox-maze procedure. Methods – 61 patients underwent surgical treatment for AF. Two had primary AF and 59 AF secondary to heart disease (2 atrial septal defects, 57 mitral). Ages ranged from 20 to 74 years (mean = 49). There were 44 females (72%). The surgical tech

5. One-year follow-up of the effects of sildenafil on pulmonary arterial hypertension and veno-occlusive disease
We hypothesized that chronic oral administration of the phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor sildenafil could improve the exercise capacity and pulmonary hemodynamics in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) on the basis of previous short-term studies. We tested this hypothesis in 14 subjects with PAH, including seven patients with the idiopathic form

6. Monitoração ecocardiográfica da atriosseptostomia com balão
Objective: Balloon atrial septostomy (BAS) is a life-saving palliative procedure for some congenital heart defects and typically performed in the cardiac catheterization laboratory. The aim of this study was to evaluate BAS under echocardiographic guidance. Method: From August 1997 through January 2004, 31 children with congenital heart defects with indicati

7. Initial diagnostic errors in children suspected of having heart disease: prevalence and long-term consequences
OBJECTIVE: To access the incidence of diagnostic errors in the initial evaluation of children with cardiac murmurs. METHODS: We evaluated our 7-years of experience in a public pediatric cardiology outpatient clinic. Of 3692 patients who were sent to the hospital, 2603 presented with a heart murmur and were investigated. Patients for whom a disagreement exist

8. Echocardiographic Assessment of the Pulmonary Venous Flow: An Indicator of Increased Pulmonary Flow in Congenital Cardiac Malformations
OBJECTIVE: To identify the left inferior pulmonary vein as an indirect marker of increased pulmonary flow in congenital heart diseases.METHODS: We carried out a prospective consecutive study on 40 patients divided into 2 groups as follows: G1 - 20 patients diagnosed with congenital heart disease and increased pulmonary flow; G2 (control group) - 20 patients

9. Catheter closure of secundum atrial septal defects.
Catheter occlusion of atrial septal defects has its roots in the 1950s, with early devices being implanted during closed-heart surgery without cardiopulmonary bypass. For the past 20 years, various catheter-delivered devices have undergone testing and refinement. Designs have included single- and double-disk prostheses, with a variety of materials, delivery

10. Open-heart surgery in 48 patients via a small right anterolateral thoracotomy.
To limit the trauma to the chest and to achieve a pleasing cosmetic result, we used 2 types of right anterolateral thoracotomy in 48 patients who required open-heart surgery: 1 was a curved incision along the lower edge of the right breast in women with developed breasts; the other was a slanted incision for men and children. These surgical procedures took p

11. Sinus arrhythmia in children with atrial septal defect: an analysis of heart rate variability before and after surgical repair.
The expression of sinus arrhythmia depends on separation of the systemic and pulmonary venous return to the heart as well as on normal autonomic control mechanisms. Patients with atrial septal defect provide a naturally occurring experiment of communication between the two venous systems. In adults with atrial septal defect sinus arrhythmia is minimal or abs

12. sonic hedgehog is required in pulmonary endoderm for atrial septation
The genesis of the septal structures of the mammalian heart is central to understanding the ontogeny of congenital heart disease and the evolution of cardiac organogenesis. We found that Hedgehog (Hh) signaling marked a subset of cardiac progenitors specific to the atrial septum and the pulmonary trunk in the mouse. Using genetic inducible fate mapping w
