Abstract
In this review, we provide a brief description of recently published articles addressing topics relevant to pediatric cardiologists. Our hope is to provide a summary of the latest articles published recently in other journals in our field. The articles address (1) outcomes for COVID-19 infection in adults with congenital heart disease which showed no increased mortality compared to the general population, (2) hepatorenal dysfunction before transplantation in patients with Fontan is associated with increased mortality, (3) abnormal Von Willebrand factor metabolism and angiopoietin signaling may contribute to pulmonary AVM formation in children with a Glenn circulation, (4) low cardiac output after the Norwood procedure which improves with higher hemoglobin and with milrionone, (5) a comparison of staged versus complete repair in neonatal tetralogy of Fallot reveiling the pros and cons of each strategy, (6) the long–term outcomes of early repair of complete atrioventricular canal show no difference in outcomes in patients who were repaired below 3 months of life.Keywords
