Impact of a Standardised Fetal Cardiac Screening Programme on Antenatal Detection Rates of Transposition of the Great Arteries Open
Background Dextro‐transposition of the great arteries (d‐TGA) can be difficult to diagnose antenatally. Standardised cardiac screening protocols may improve detection rates. Aims The objective of this study was to examine rates of antenata…

Bronchial varices in a child with tricuspid atresia six years post Fontan correction Open
Tracheal and bronchial varices are rarely found in children. However, they have been described in adults with failing Fontan circuits or secondary to vascular pathology, such as portal and pulmonary hypertension. We report the presentation…

Queensland Paediatric Cardiac Service: Lessons from evolution to a unified service in a tertiary children's hospital Open
We describe a complex change process for the paediatric cardiac service in Queensland that involved transitioning the service out of an essentially adult hospital into one of two children's hospitals in Brisbane. This initial step was comp…

Homografts versus stentless bioprosthetic valves in the pulmonary position: a multicentre propensity-matched comparison in patients younger than 20 years† Open
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare the performance of pulmonary homografts with stentless bioprosthetic valves [Medtronic Freestyle™ (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA)] in the pulmonary position in patients with congenital hear…

Long-term performance of homografts versus stented bioprosthetic valves in the pulmonary position in patients aged 10–20 years† Open
In our patient population, pulmonary homografts outperformed stented bioprosthetic valves within 5 years when implanted in the pulmonary position in patients aged 10-20 years. We recommend the use of a pulmonary homograft for pulmonary val…
