    CT and MRI Findings in a Child with Constrictive Pericarditis (1998)

    Notes: Abstract. Constrictive pericarditis is rare in children. We report computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in a 3-year-old girl. She had a swollen abdomen that increased in two months. CT and MRI showed a thickened pericardium (5.2 mm) without calcification. Both atria were enlarged and ventricles were relatively small. The engorged inferior vena cava had 2.8× the diameter of the descending aorta at the same level. Symptoms were dramatically improved after pericardiectomy. The histopathological features confirmed chronic pericarditis.

    Echocardiographic Features of Left Juxtaposed Atrial Appendages Associated with Dextro-Transposition of the Great Arteries (1996)

    Notes: Abstract. We found that echocardiography in cases of left juxtaposed atrial appendage (JAA) consistently featured a malpositioned right atrial appendage, abnormal spatial orientation of the atrial septum, and posterior deviation of the septum secundum toward the left atrium. The qualitative displacement of the septum secundum together with the posterior and leftward displacement of the right atrial appendage (with respect to the great arteries) prompted us to pose questions concerning the morphogenesis of left JAA and the implications for surgery. The importance of precatheterization and preoperative recognition of left JAA in dextro-transposition of the great arteries by echocardiography cannot be overemphasized when planning a balloon atrial septostomy or a biventricular repair.
