Purpose : This study assessed the long term survival rate and long term complications of patients who had a modified Fontan operation for functionally univentricular cardiac anomaly.
Methods : Between June 1986 and December 2000, 302 patients with a functional single ventricle underwent surgical interventions and were followed up until February 2006. The mean follow-up period was 8.3?.3 years (range 3.5-18... |

Purpose : We hypothesized dexrazoxane(DXR) and pentoxifylline(PTX) may prevent myocardial damage in adriamycin(ADR)-induced cardiomyopathic rat model. We also investigated their effects on the myocardial apoptosis and fibrosis in ADR induced cardiomyopathy.
Methods : The six-week old female Spregue-Dawley rats were divided into control group(CNT, n= 4), ADR group(n=6), ADR＋DXR group(DXR, n=5), ADR＋PTX group(PTX, n=6), ADR＋DXR＋PTX group(DXPT, n=5). ADR(5 mg/week, twice) was... |

The usefulness of two-dimensional echocardiography to measure the right ventricular volume was assessed in 58 normal children(mean age 5 years and 3 months). From the apical 4-chamber view(A4CV), the subcostal RV sagittal view(SCRVSV), the subcostal right anterior oblique view(SCRAOV), and the subcostal RV coronal view(SCRVCV), the dimensions and areas of the right ventricle were measured. The right ventricular volumes and... |
