Repair of an aneurysm of the ascending aorta and arch in an infant with Loeys-Dietz syndrome.

Aortic aneurysms in childhood are rare disease entities and are usually seen in patients with genetic connective tissue disorders such as Marfans, Ehler-Danlos, and Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS). Patients affected with LDS present early in life and have a rapid disease progression. We report a case of repair of an ascending and aortic arch aneurysm in an infant with Loeys-Dietz syndrome.

Successful repair of interrupted aortic arch with aortopulmonary window associated with long gap oesophageal atresia and Type C tracheoesophageal fistula: challenging and rare case report.

Congenital heart diseases are most common anomalies associated with tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF) and oesophageal atresia (EA). The physiology and anatomy of heart disease is major determinant factor influencing outcome in patients with TEF/EA. We present a successfully treated case of complex congenital heart anomaly of interrupted aortic arch (IAA) with aortopulmonary window (APW) with TEF/EA.
