  BRIEF COMMENTS EXPERT: Prof. Janusz Skalski, MD PhD, pediatric cardiac surgeon Affiliation: Department of Pediatric Cardiac Surgery, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Krakow COMMENT Computed tomography picture suggests that the homograft compresses the left coronary artery causing exercise ischemia. The homograft, in my opinion, should be replaced surgically. Coronary angiography should be performed, in order to investigate coronary arteries status. Reconsultation should be done before deciding for any coronary intervention coronary angiography. EXPERT: Tomasz Mroczek, MD PhD, pediatric cardiac surgeon …

(IV-1C.3.o) Patient with Taussig-Bing syndrome Drabik L., MD, Tomkiewicz-Pająk L., MD, PhD, Prof. Olszowska M., MD, PhD, Prof. Podolec P., MD, PhD

Background Taussig-Bing syndrome is a rare congenital heart malformation consisting of transposition of the aorta to the right ventricle and malposition of the pulmonary artery with subpulmonary ventricular septal defect. Taussig-Bing syndrome is frequently associated with other cardiac abnormalities: right ventricular outflow tract obstruction, aortic arch obstruction and unusual coronary pattern [1].There are essential differences between Taussig-Bing syndrome and transposition of the great arteries with ventricular septal defect and overriding pulmonary artery. Taussig-Bing syndrome is characterized by true double-outlet right …

Experts: Skalski J., Pająk J., Olszowska M., Tomkiewicz- Pająk L.

Background Truncus arteriosus communis (TAC) is a rare congenital heart disease appearing in 0.034 to 0.56 per 1,000 newborns and representing 1.4% to 2.8% of all cases of congenital heart diseases. In this anomaly, a single arterial trunk arises from the heart, overrides the interventricular septum, and supplies systemic, pulmonary, and coronary circulations. Without surgical treatment, 80% of patients die within the first year of life, usually in early infancy. Repair of TAC during the neonatal and early infant period …
