Objectives Treatment of perimembranous ventricular septal defects (VSD) has traditionally been surgical. Surgery most often includes midline sternotomy, cardiopulmonary bypass with cardioplegic arrest, and patch closure of the defect. Devices have become available that allow...
This study addressed the long-term results of the réparation à l’étage ventriculaire (REV) procedure for double outlet right ventricle (DORV) and transposition of the great arteries (TGA) with pulmonary stenosis...
This video describes a simple method of complete reconstruction of a truncal valve using equine pericardium in a one-year-old patient with severe truncal valve regurgitation. Surgical Technique Through a transverse...
Fuhrman and colleagues investigated the occurrence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in young adults with congenital heart disease undergoing a surgical procedure, a group of patients that is increasing in...

A 12-year-old boy was diagnosed with supravalvular aortic stenosis. He underwent an aortoplasty with Brom’s technique, which involved enlarging all three sinuses with pericardial patches. This video is a step-by-step...
Propensity score-matched analysis of surgical ligation versus medical management of clinically significant patent ductus arteriosus in premature (
...An eight-year-old boy with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy underwent an extended septal myectomy. This video shows the pre-operative echo, and describes each step of the surgical technique. Note: This video was originally...
The authors present the unusual case of a previously fit and well 15-year-old girl. She developed a hoarse voice and was found to have a heart murmur. On subsequent investigation,...
Objectives Deep hypothermia and cardioplegic myocardial arrest, with or without selective cerebral perfusion, is traditionally performed during aortic arch reconstruction. In the following video, the authors describe a technique for...
Patients who underwent a Fontan procedure for single ventricle physiology were evaluated with serial cardiac MR over time to identify changes in vessel characteristics and their relationship to flow. Although...
This single institution study evaluated the effects of 24-hr in hospital congenital cardiac surgery coverage on outcomes for perioperative congenital heart surgery ECMO. Institution of 24-hr coverage reduced hospital mortality...
Objective: Aortic valve repair has encouraging mid- and long-term results in selected patients. This video describes the tailored cusp extension valvuloplasty surgical technique. Methods: A 15-year-old girl presented with severe...
