DOI: 10.1002/ccd.31110

Abstract: Hybrid stage I palliation (HS1P) is an alternative approach for initial palliation in hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) patients. Unlike surgical stage I palliation where atrial septectomy is routinely performed, atrial septal intervention (ASI) during… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00246-017-1783-6

Abstract: Quantification of right ventricular function is difficult, but important, in patients with single ventricles. Tissue motion annular displacement (TMAD) is an echocardiographic tool that measures displacement of the tricuspid valve relative to the apex. We… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00246-022-02886-0

Abstract: Neonates with symptomatic tetralogy of Fallot (sTOF) may undergo palliations with varying physiology, namely systemic to pulmonary artery connections (SPC) or right ventricular outflow tract interventions (RVOTI). A comparison of palliative strategies based on the… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2025 at "Cardiology in the Young"

DOI: 10.1017/s1047951125100838

Abstract: Abstract Single ventricle patients undergoing comprehensive stage II palliation have higher incidence of severe acute kidney injury compared to the bidirectional Glenn palliation; however, the optimal method for early detection remains unknown. Several urinary biomarkers… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-52993-x

Abstract: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) with transpapillary metal stenting is the standard palliation method for malignant distal biliary obstruction (MDBO); however, post-ERCP pancreatitis are not uncommon. Endoscopic ultrasonography-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) with transmural metal stenting has… read more here.
