  • left superior vena cava connection to unroofed coronary sinus associated with positional Cyanosis successful transcatheter treatment using gianturco grifka vascular occlusion device
    Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, 1999
    Co-Authors: Robert L Geggel, Stanton B Perry, Elizabeth D Blume, Charles M Baker
    Abstract:

    A persistent left superior vena cava connection to an unroofed coronary sinus is a rare cardiac anomaly that is associated with a variable degree of Cyanosis. We report an infant with this condition and the unusual feature of Cyanosis dependent on head position. When the patient's head was rotated to the left, he developed severe stenosis of the left internal jugular vein, enlarged cervical collateral veins that connected to the right superior vena cava and had an oxygen saturation 95%. When the patient's head was rotated to the right, the left internal jugular vein was widely patent and systemic oxygen saturation decreased to 87%. There was no right ventricular volume overload. Temporary occlusion of the left superior vena cava documented tolerable proximal venous pressure. Cyanosis was relieved by transcatheter closure of the left superior vena cava with a Gianturco-Grifka vascular occlusion device. Cathet. Cardiovasc. Intervent. 48:369–373, 1999. © 1999 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

  • ruptured tricuspid valve papillary muscle a treatable cause of neonatal Cyanosis
    The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2007
    Co-Authors: Ritu Sachdeva, Richard T Fiser, William R Morrow, Joseph R Cava, Nancy S Ghanayem, Robert D B Jaquiss
    Abstract:

    Severe tricuspid regurgitation resulting from a flail leaflet is a rare cause of neonatal Cyanosis. We report two neonates with profound Cyanosis and severe tricuspid regurgitation caused by rupture of the papillary muscle supporting the anterior leaflet, without other structural heart defects. Ductal patency could not be established. Repair of the tricuspid valve was performed by reimplantation of the ruptured papillary muscle head, after initial stabilization using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Early recognition and treatment of this otherwise fatal condition can be lifesaving.
