All data about the location and characteristics of the consulted hospitals, specialty of the consulting physician, and aim of the consultations (operation request, treatment plan, testing details, and nutrition) were retrospectively assessed.

We observed an annual increment in the number of cases. e majority of questioners were in the Kanto region, university hospitals, and pediatric cardiologist, about postoperative chylothorax.

However, it should be recognized as a serious illness because some patients may develop heart failure (HF) if diagnosis and treatment are delayed. Methods : The clinical course and prognoses of ARF with carditis in six patients ( n = 3 women) diagnosed in our institutions from 1994 to 2018 were investigated by retrospectively reviewing medical records. Results : The age at diagnosis was 3 ‒ 13 (median: 8.5) years. The symptoms at onset were fever and arthralgia/ arthritis in four, arthralgia/arthritis alone in one, and shortness of breath and fatigability due to HF in one patient. The duration from the initial presentation to the diagnosis of ARF ranged from 3 days to 4 years and 10 months (median: 11.5 days). None of the patients presented with major symptoms other than carditis and polyarthritis based on the revised Jones Criteria. Similar to valvulitis, aortic valve regurgitation (AR), mitral regurgitation (MR), and both AR and MR were observed in 5, 3, and 2 cases, respectively. The patients were treated with prednisolone and/or aspirin and antibiotics (provided as prophylaxis drugs). During follow-up (range: 1 ‒ 15 [median: 9] years), MR almost disappeared; however, AR remained. Moreover, aortic valve replacement was required in two cases, and recurrence of ARF was not noted. Conclusion : In this study, arthritis-related symptoms were more likely to be observed during the initial presentation, and the diagnosis of carditis was delayed, resulting in a critical clinical course in some cases. Patients with streptococcal infection-related polyarthritis should be screened for carditis by a pediatric cardiologist.","PeriodicalId":89701,"journal":{"name":"Nihon Shoni Junkanki Gakkai zasshi = Pediatric cardiology and cardiac surgery","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49017383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the natural history and incidence of spontaneous closure are unknown. Methods : We retrospectively analyzed all patients aged under 18 years with CAVF diagnosed via transthoracic two-dimensional doppler echocardiography between 2009 and 2019. Results : In total, 65 (34 boys) children were diagnosed with CAVF and were enrolled in the analysis. The median age at diagnosis was 4 (0 ‒ 86) months, and the mean follow-up period was 42 (0 ‒ 215) months. Spontaneous closure of CAVF was observed in 31 (48 % ) children. There was no significant difference in terms of closure rate according to gender. Meanwhile, the left and right coronary arteries remarkably differed in terms of CAVF patency according to origin ( p < 0.05). Moreover, there was a significant difference between the pulmonary artery and the ventricle in terms of CAVF patency according to drainage ( p < 0.05). One patient underwent coil embolization at the age of 1 year and 4 months. However, no other intervention was required. None of the patients had ischemia or heart failure during the clinical course. Conclusion : Approximately 48 % of patients experienced spontaneous closure of CAVF. The closure rate was higher than that previously reported, and it differed based on origin and opening of the fistula. Hence, assess-ment of the origin and opening of the fistula may be useful during follow-up.","PeriodicalId":89701,"journal":{"name":"Nihon Shoni Junkanki Gakkai zasshi = Pediatric cardiology and cardiac surgery","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71276523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

HLHS with moderate tricuspid regurgitation was suspected on fetal echocardiography. However, transthoracic echocardiography after birth revealed a continuous flow shunting from the aortic root to the right atrium rather than tricuspid regurgitation. A ruptured SVA was suspected, and countercurrent aortography was performed for further evaluation. Results revealed an SVA of noncoronary cusp with a continuous flow to the right atrium. This finding indicated a ruptured SVA, which can occur even in a fetus. The shunt flow of a ruptured SVA into the right atrium can be misdiagnosed as tricuspid regurgitation on fetal echocardiography.

We report the case of 4-month-old boy diagnosed with cardiogenic shock secondary to MAT who responded to antiarrhythmic medications. e child was delivered by caesarean section at gestational age of 36 weeks due to fetal distress; his birth weight was 2,362 g. He was referred to our hospital at four months of age with chief complaints of poor feeding and tachyarrhythmias detected during a previous examination. A 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) revealed a narrow QRS complex and irregular tachycardia at a rate of 200‒240 beats per minute, leading to the diagnosis of MAT. Echocardiography revealed severe functional decline, including an 11% shortening fraction (SF) and a dilated le ventricle. Amiodarone (5 mg/kg injection) was administered in an attempt to normalize the atrial tachycardia; this resulted in a substantial drop in blood pressure. e patient was intubated and provided with inotropic support, including dopamine and milrinone. Landiolol (10 μg/kg/min by continuous infusion) and oral aprindine (1.5 mg/kg/day) were initiated on hospital day 8. e frequency of tachycardia decreased and cardiac function gradually recovered over a period of 2‒3 weeks. e patient was discharged on hospital day 43 with improved cardiac function and a SF of 30%.
