New Insight in Pediatric Cardiology: From Basic to Therapeutics
Congenital heart diseases are the most common neonatal malformations, ranging from 8 to 15/1000 live births in various communities. Improvement of knowledge in the genetic and etio-pathogenic aspects of these malformations as well as the technical advances of diagnostic and therapeutic tools have brought about a significant improvement in overall long-term patient outcome over the last few decades. This e-book is an update on the most recent genetic, diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of this pediatric cardiology. Specifically, the book explains, in detail, recent acquisitions in the field of interaction between the genome and heart development, advances in diagnostic non-invasive techniques and novel therapeutic applications of the percutaneous and “hybrid” cardiologic/surgical procedures. These developments in diagnostics and therapeutics will be extremely valuable for both pediatric and adult cardiologists treating patients with congenital heart defects.
Congenital and Structural Heart Disease, An Issue of Interventional Cardiology Clinics
This issue of Interventional Cardiology Clinics covers congenital and structural heart disease. Expert authors review the most current information available about treating a variety of conditions, including coarctation of the aorta, transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement, percutaneous mitral valve interventions, and catheter interventions for pulmonary artery stenosis. Complex interventions for adults with congenital heart disease are also discussed. Keep up-to-the-minute with the latest developments in this important aspect of interventional cardiology practice.
Atrial Septal Defect
Atrial Septal Defects (ASDs) are relatively common both in children and adults. Recent reports of increase in the prevalence of ASD may be related use of color Doppler echocardiography. The etiology of the ASD is largely unknown. While the majority of the book addresses closure of ASDs, one chapter in particular focuses on creating atrial defects in the fetus with hypoplastic left heart syndrome. This book, I hope, will give the needed knowledge to the physician caring for infants, children, adults and elderly with ASD which may help them provide best possible care for their patients.
Complications During Percutaneous Interventions for Congenital and Structural Heart Disease
Created by world-renown editors who have assembled a stellar team, a Who's Who of pediatric and adult cardiologists, surgeons, and interventionalists who offer the reader pearls of wisdom based on daily practice in the cath lab, this practical guide discusses methods to overcoming complications in the interventional treatment of congenital and stru
The Right Ventricle in Adults with Tetralogy of Fallot
Tetralogy of Fallot is the most common form of cyanotic congenital heart disease, and one of the first to be successfully repaired by congenital heart surgeons. Although “fixed”, patients born with tetralogy of Fallot cannot be considered “cured”. Improving survival and quality of life for this ever-increasing adult population will continue to challenge the current and future generations of cardiologists. Adult patients with tetralogy of Fallot should be seen by a cardiologist specializing in the care of adults with congenital heart disease, to be monitored for late complications. They need to be checked regularly for any subsequent complications or disturbances of heart rhythm. This monograph is intended as both an introduction to the subject and a timely, comprehensive review, and will be welcomed by adult cardiologists, pediatric cardiologists, internists, surgeons, obstetricians, and intensivists who wish to learn about the most recent discoveries and advances concerning tetralogy of Fallot in adults. It will also be of interest to advanced undergraduates wanting to learn more about the subject.
The Tricuspid Valve in Congenital Heart Disease
This book is devoted solely to the tricuspid valve and its role in congenital heart disease. Tricuspid valve anomalies are part of the pathological spectrum in various congenital heart diseases, including Ebstein anomaly and tricuspid valve dysplasia, with different pathophysiology and clinical implications. This book covers all relevant aspects of such anomalies, including diagnosis, therapy and follow-up. Further topics addressed include the way in which the tricuspid valve may become the “systemic” valve in some congenital diseases, with important consequences and the involvement of the tricuspid valve in the right-sided heart complications often seen in adults with congenital heart disease. All of the chapters are written by internationally recognized experts and are designed to deliver state of the art knowledge of practical value. This book will be an important addition to the library for surgeons, cardiologists and other practitioners involved in the management of patients with congenital heart disease.
Paediatric Cardiology
While paediatric cardiology may be a small specialty, it is important to note that congenital heart disease ranks as the most prevalent congenital condition globally. As a result, cardiac problems form a significant part of the workload of many general paediatricians, neonatologists, and other paediatric specialists. Beyond congenital heart conditions, acquired heart diseases are frequently encountered in general practice. The management of heart-related conditions can often be complex, leading to apprehension for junior doctors during their rotations in this field. The Oxford Specialist Handbook of Paediatric Cardiology aims to address this challenge and provides essential insights into the...
