Treatment and Patient Reported Outcome in Children with Hirschsprung Disease and Concomitant Congenital Heart Disease
Table 1
The different types of congenital heart diseases (CHD) identified among 13 out of 53 children with Hirschsprung disease (HD). PFO = patent foramen oval, ASD = atrial septal defect, and VSD = ventricular septal defect.
HD and CHD
Congenital heart disease
Patient 1
PFO or small ASD, with left to right shunt without restrictions
Patient 2
PFO with left to right shunt
Patient 3
Perimembranous ventricular septal defect (VSD) and ASD 4-5 mm
Patient 4
Muscular VSD, 3 mm
Patient 5
Dysplastic tricuspid valve with moderate insufficiency, pulmonic insufficiency, ductus with bidirectional flow
Patient 6
Small PFO and small ductus shunt;
Patient 7
Small central ASD and atrial septal aneurysm
Patient 8
Bicuspid aortic valve
Patient 9
Aortic stenosis, dysplastic aortic valve stenosis
Patient 10
ASD 3-4 mm, minimal ductus;
Patient 11
ASD without hemodynamic effect
Patient 12
Open PFO 4 mm, open ductus, left periphery pulmonary artery stenosis
Patient 13
ASD, obvious left to right shunt, 7 mm. Enlargement of both atriums and mild branch artery stenosis in arteria pulmonalis
Defined as mild forms of CHD. Excluded in long-term follow-up because they were <4 years old.
