Egyptian foetal mummies are rare archaeological artefacts. We report the case of a mummified foetus with a highly probable dextrocardia accurately depicted by computed tomography scan.

Three-dimensional echocardiography is an increasingly used method to accurately depict congenital heart disease in children. We report the case of a 2-month-old girl with supramitral ring. Three-dimensional echocardiography allowed perfect visualisation of the fibrous shelf before surgery.

A 38-year-old man who had a history of percutaneous coronary artery coil occlusion was admitted to our hospital with chest pain and shortness of breath. His complaint was chest pain, which is typical. ST depressions were observed during the treadmill exercise stress test. Coronary angiography demonstrated the persistence of a coronary arteriovenous fistula and coils in the fistula. Primarily, additional coil placement inside the arteriovenous fistula was decided as the mode of treatment. The coil was first placed inside the arteriovenous fistula and then an attempt was made to detach it. However, it was unsuccessful after four trials and electrical detachment of more than 3 minutes. Finally, a 2.5 × 18-millimetre graft stent was deployed at 20 atmospheric pressure. Electrocardiographic recordings showed bizarre ST segment changes during the electrical detachment of the coil. In this report, we discuss the concealed bizarre electrocardiographic changes that were seen during coronary arteriovenous fistula occlusion.

Respiratory syncytial virus is the most common pathogen causing lower respiratory tract infection in infants. Respiratory syncytial virus infection is also associated with a number of extrapulmonary manifestations, including the cardiac system. Pericardial effusion, however, is a very rare occurrence with respiratory syncytial virus infection. We report a very young infant with respiratory syncytial virus bronchiolitis whose clinical course was associated with pericardial effusion, treated conservatively.

We report a case of a child with neonatal Marfan syndrome who was submitted for clinical and surgical treatment with good late outcome 9 years after the first cardiac operation.

We report the case of a young woman with continuing haemoptysis, pulmonary atresia, previous shunt surgery, and pulmonary hypertension. She was not suitable for further surgery or for therapeutic embolisation of bronchial vessels. Treatment with tranexamic acid resolved the haemoptysis.

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations in patients with congenital heart disease have been associated with interruption of hepatic venous return to the lungs. We report a novel technique to improve systemic saturation using a modified covered stent in a patient with unilateral left pulmonary arteriovenous malformations in the setting of a Fontan circulation.
