    Pulmonary Edema in the Acute Stage of Rheumatic Fever Treated with Double-Valve Replacement in a Pediatric Patient
    (2020-03-01T00:00:00Z) Yozgat, Yilmaz; Uzuner, Selcuk; YEŞİLBAŞ, OSMAN; Ogur, Mustafa; YAKUT, KAHRAMAN; Yozgat, Can Yilmaz; Temur, Hafize Otcu; AY, YASİN; YOZGAT, YILMAZ; UZUNER, SELÇUK; YAKUT, KAHRAMAN; AY, YASİN
    Cardiogenic pulmonary edema (CPE) is a rare clinical condition of acute rheumatic fever (ARF) in the early stage. Generally, CPE can be convalesced by steroid and anticongestive treatment. Herein, we describe a case of a 14-year-old boy with ARF presenting with bilateral pulmonary edema secondary to acute mitral and aortic insufficiency. In this case, the pulmonary edema of ARF was successfully managed by combined surgical replacements of both valves.

    Transcatheter retrieval of embolized catheter using venovenous loop in a neonate.
    (2018-01-01) Varan, B; Yakut, KAHRAMAN; Harman, A; YAKUT, KAHRAMAN
    Varan B, Yakut K, Harman A. Transcatheter retrieval of embolized catheter using venovenous loop in a neonate. Turk J Pediatr 2018; 60: 113-115. Umbilical venous catheters are reliable in providing adequate medical care for premature babies however complications include infections, bleeding, thrombosis, catheter occlusion and migration of a piece of catheter to other parts in the body. Here, we present a case with migration of a piece of umbilical venous catheter which has been trapped between hepatic vein and right upper pulmonary vein causing apnea episodes, recurrent respiratory symptoms, need for mechanical ventilation and increase of acute phase reactants. The embolized catheter was retrieved successfully via percutaneous route.

    A Rare Cause of Pulmonary Hypertension in a 4-Year-Old Toddler: Association of Cor Triatriatum Sinister and Pulmonary Arteriovenous Malformation
    (2020-11-01T00:00:00Z) Yozgat, Can Yilmaz; ÇAKIR, Erkan; YAZAN, HAKAN; OTÇU TEMUR, Hafize; YAKUT, KAHRAMAN; YOZGAT, YILMAZ; ÇAKIR, ERKAN; YAZAN, HAKAN; OTÇU TEMUR, HAFİZE; YAKUT, KAHRAMAN; YOZGAT, YILMAZ
    Cor triatriatum sinister is a rare congenital cardiac anomaly. The anomaly is caused by a fibromuscular membrane that divides the left atrium into two cavities. This membrane can lead to the obstruction of left atrial flow and also create pulmonary venous hypertension. Pulmonary arteriovenous malformation (PAVM) is notorious for its aberrant blood flow between the pulmonary arteries and veins. Herein, we report a case of a 4-year-old toddler who had a unique form of pulmonary hypertension presenting with cor triatriatum sinister and diffuse PAVM. After the surgical treatment of cor triatriatum sinister, both pulmonary arteriovenous malformation and pulmonary hypertension disappeared.

    Management and Outcomes of Paediatric Patients with Palpitations Examined in Our Clinic
    (2020-07-01T00:00:00Z) YAKUT, KAHRAMAN
    Objective: We retrospectively reviewed the data of patients who presented to the paediatric cardiology clinic with complaints of palpitations. We aimed to describe the characteristics of these patients, the rhythm disorders that were detected, and the treatment methods with a particular attention on rare and vital diseases. Methods: In total, 1,680 patients aged 5-18 years who presented with palpitations at the paediatric cardiology clinic between January 2016 and June 2019 were enrolled. Of these, 714 (42.5%) were male and 966 (57.5%) were female. All the hospital records including electrocardiography, echocardiography, cardiovascular stress test, 24-h Holter monitoring, event recorder and genetic analysis results were reviewed. Results: The mean age of the patients was 13.5 +/- 3.2 years (range: 5-17.8 years). Palpitation was accompanied with chest pain in 218 patients, shortness of breath in 152 patients and weakness in 67 patients. Also, 726 Holter monitoring, 165 event recorder and 104 cardiovascular stress test results were evaluated. Dysrhythmia was detected in 306 patients (18.2%). The most common dysrhythmias were supraventricular extrasystoles (n=171, 55.8%) and ventricular extrasystoles (n=82, 26.8%). Five patients were diagnosed with non-sustained ventricular tachycardia (VT) episodes, one with long QTc syndrome and one with catecholaminergic polymorphic VT. Two patients were followed-up for arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD), 12 patients had mitral valve prolapsed (MVP), 8 had valvular heart disease caused by acute rheumatic fever (ARF) and 7 had bicuspid aortic valve (BAV). Conclusion: Palpitation is one of the common causes of outpatient clinic visits in children and it may be the first symptom of serious arrhythmias, although it is frequently associated with benign pathologies. Most life-threatening dysrhythmias can be detected by a thorough analysis of the patient using basic cardiological examination methods.
