Kula, Monika Campbell, A. D’Cruz, C.A. Sebastian, Vinod A. /library/oar/handle/123456789/4071 2018-07-19T10:57:09Z 2005-01-01T00:00:00Z Title: Cardiac hemangioma of the right atrium in a neonate : fetal management and expedited surgical resection Authors: Einzig, Stanley; Costello, C.; Kula, Monika; Campbell, A.; D’Cruz, C.A.; Sebastian, Vinod A. Abstract: Cardiac hemangioma is a rare tumor with a reported incidence of 1-2%. We describe the case of a neonate with a right atrial mass that was diagnosed prenatally. The fetus developed a supraventricular tachycardia and was delivered by cesarean section in the 35th week of gestation. The infant underwent surgery after 24 hours to remove the mass which was diagnosed as a cardiac capillary-cavernous hemangioma. 2005-01-01T00:00:00Z Palliative balloon dilation of native coarctation of the aorta in a preterm infant Sreeram, Narayanswami De Giovanni, Joseph V. Boehm, W. /library/oar/handle/123456789/4066 2018-03-26T08:24:39Z 2005-01-01T00:00:00Z Title: Palliative balloon dilation of native coarctation of the aorta in a preterm infant Authors: Sreeram, Narayanswami; De Giovanni, Joseph V.; Boehm, W. Abstract: The role of balloon dilation for native coarctation in neonates is controversial, due to the relatively high recurrence rate. Balloon dilation may however provide adequate palliation in preterm infants, by relieving symptoms and allowing somatic growth until definitive surgical repair can be performed. We report successful balloon angioplasty, on 2 occasions, in a preterm neonate with coarctation of the aorta and associated left ventricular cardiomyopathy. 2005-01-01T00:00:00Z
