Pulmonary Atresia (Single Aortic Outlet) Fifty-eight hearts presented with pulmonary atresia with IVS. In all hearts, levocardia and d -loop were present. [frontiersin.org]

A key determinant to the spectrum of symptoms that a patient will experience is the degree of pulmonary stenosis that is present. This complication determines how soon a patient will present with symptoms. [news-medical.net]

If the doctor hears a heart murmur or other signs are present, the doctor can request one or more tests to confirm the diagnosis. [cdc.gov]

  As the person with a single ventricle ages, potential health problems that develop include complaints of heart rhythm disturbances such as faster than normal heart (tachycardia), atrial flutter, slow heart rate (bradycardia), congestive heart failure, [secure.ssa.gov]

  On the other hand, congestive heart failure is seen in patients who have an excessive amount of blood under high pressure being pumped into the lungs. Management of DORV and DILV In both cases, surgery is the only option. [news-medical.net]

  Without pulmonary stenosis, blood flow gradually increases to cause congestive heart failure, often within the first few days of birth. [vhlab.umn.edu]

• Coarctation of the Aorta

  Coarctation of the aorta If your child has the more serious form of coarctation of the aorta that develops shortly after birth, surgery to restore the flow of blood through the aorta is usually recommended in the first few days of life. [nhs.uk]

  People with DILV often also have other heart problems, such as: Coarctation of the aorta (narrowing of the aorta) Pulmonary atresia (pulmonary valve of the heart is not formed properly) Pulmonary valve stenosis (narrowing of the pulmonary valve) Symptoms [medlineplus.gov]

  These are most commonly VSDs which are associated with other cardiac defects (for example, Tetralogy of Fallot, coarctation of the aorta, etc.). Cases with multiple VSDs ("Swiss cheese" defects) are also harder to treat. [medicinenet.com]

  The child may have labored breathing, difficulty feeding, poor growth, and have pallor. How is a large VSD treated? Ultimately, the patient with a large VSD will need surgery to "patch the hole" in the ventricular septum. [medicinenet.com]

  Abstract Single or common ventricle is a rare and complex form of congenital heart disease in which the ventricular chamber receives blood from both atrioventricular valves, either separately or as a common atrioventricular valve. [link.springer.com]

  Complex congenital cyanotic heart disease (CCCHD) is occasionally associated and may pose several anesthetic problems perioperatively. [joacp.org]

  Infants may appear bluish (i.e. cyanosis) due to the low levels of blood oxygen saturation. [news-medical.net]

• Heart Murmur

  The blood flowing through the hole creates an extra noise, which is known as a heart murmur. The heart murmur can be heard when a doctor listens to the heart with a stethoscope. [kidshealth.org]

  During a physical examination the doctor might hear a distinct whooshing sound, called a heart murmur. If the doctor hears a heart murmur or other signs are present, the doctor can request one or more tests to confirm the diagnosis. [cdc.gov]

  If your doctor hears a heart murmur, she may refer your child to a special heart doctor for children called a pediatric cardiologist. Your heart doctor will listen to your baby’s heart and lungs. [healthcare.utah.edu]
