Ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death in tetralogy of Fallot
2017, Archives of Cardiovascular DiseasesCitation Excerpt :Congenital heart disease is present in 0.9% of living births; currently, 90% of those affected will reach adulthood because of recent progress made in paediatrics, cardiology, surgery and resuscitation [1,2].
Sudden infant deaths from undiagnosed ventricular septal defect – Report of two autopsy cases
2016, Legal MedicineCitation Excerpt :Wolfe et al. reported that the incidence of sudden death was 4.2% [18], although VSD was considered to have an excellent prognosis. Previous to the present paper, 15 cases have been reported as sudden death in infants and children with VSDs [21–28] (Table 1); 6 out of 15 cases were not diagnosed VSDs until autopsies have been performed. Five cases of VSDs were identified antemortem, the remaining 4 cases were unknown concerning antemortem diagnoses.
Bicuspid Aortic Valve Disease
2010, Journal of the American College of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :However, there are little data available to support recommendations regarding exercise in subjects with BAV. In children with congenital severe aortic stenosis, for instance, sudden death can occur during exercise (131–133). The Task Force on Exercise in Patients with Heart Disease recommends that athletes with severe aortic stenosis or severe aortic incompetence with left ventricular dilation (left ventricular dimensions >65 mm) should not participate in competitive athletics.
