Abstract: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiac vale repair is an uncommon surgery in infants. CABG is technically demanding in infants due to the small size not only of the coronary arteries but also the potential graft arteries. The short and long-term outcome of surgery is not known and thus has largely been avoided. This article reports the case histories of two infants in whom CABG was undertaken successfully as a life-saving measure. 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z https://www.um.edu.mt/library/oar/handle/123456789/4155 Title: Asymptomatic cardiac rhabdomyoma in neonates : is surgery indicated? Authors: Etuwewe, Bemigho; John, Constance M.; Abdel-Aziz, Mohamed A.S. Abstract: Neonatal Tuberose sclerosis complex may be associated with symptomatic cardiac rhabdomyomas. Cardiac rhabdomyomas are the most common cardiac tumours. The symptoms include haemodynamic instability and life threatening arrhythmias usually requiring early surgical intervention. This article reports a case of a 32 week gestation newborn diagnosed with a right ventricular outflow tract mass and subsequently diagnosed with tuberose sclerosis that needed early surgical intervention. 2009-01-01T00:00:00Z
