Angioplasty (PTCA) and stents Angioplasty (or PTCA) is a catheterization procedure in which blocked coronary arteries are unblocked using balloons, tiny drills, laser or other techniques. Stents are tiny metal scaffolds that are applied to the inside of a diseased artery, then expanded to hold the artery open. Aortic aneurysm and vascular disease Aortic aneurysm, or dilation of the aorta, is responsible for thousands of deaths each year. Other forms of vascular heart disease also cause substantial mortality and loss of function. Arrhythmias and their treatment Cardiac arrhythmias, or heart rhythm disturbances, can be entirely benign, or highly lethal. Telling the difference, and knowing how aggressively to treat, can present a true challenge.

Why are most cases of CHD not a problem before birth? ... Congenital Heart Disease At A Glance What is congenital heart disease (CHD)? Congenital heart disease (CHD) is malformation of the heart or the large blood vessels near the heart. "Congenital" speaks only to time, not to causation. It means "born with" or "present at birth." Alternative names for CHD include: congenital heart defect, congenital heart malformation, congenital cardiovascular disease, congenital cardiovascular defect, and congenital cardiovascular malformation. How common is congenital heart disease? Congenital heart disease is the most frequent form of major birth defects in newborns affecting close to 1% of newborn babies (8 per 1,000). This figure is an underestimate since it does not include some common problems, namely: Patent ductus arteriosus in preterm babies (a temporary condition) Bicuspid (two cusps) aortic valve (the aortic valve usually has three cusps or flaps) Mitral valve prolapse (drooping of a heart valve) Peripheral pulmonary stenosis (narrowing of the lung vessels well away from the heart) When is the diagnosis of congenital heart disease (CHD) usually made?

For Patients The Adult with Congenital Heart Disease: Frequently Asked Questions Kevin Mulhern,* M.D. Division of Cardiovascular Diseases University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics *Currently Private Practice, Kansas City, KS First Published: March 2000 Last Revised: January 2004 Peer Review Status: Internally Peer Reviewed What exactly is congenital heart disease? Isn't it a condition you are born with? That is correct. The word congenital means born with, and this is different than the more common heart diseases that people acquire sometime after birth either from infection, coronary artery disease, trauma, and other problems. Does congenital heart disease last a lifetime? Yes, it does. The congenital heart problem is always there although it can often be made much better as a result of surgery or treatment with a catheter-based therapy. Many children born with heart problems live to be active, normally functioning adults, and there are some heart conditions that people are born with that are so well tolerated that sometimes they are not even discovered until the person is a young adult or even elderly. What are the treatment options for congenital heart disease for a child and an adult?
