  • Pediheart Podcast #399: Are We Creating Too Many Single Ventricle Patients When Biventricular Circulation Is Feasible?
    Oct 16 2026
    This week we review a recent report from the team at UTSW comparing early outcomes following biventricular repair vs. Fontan palliation for complex congenital heart disease with borderline ventricles or complex cardiac anatomy that may, in the past, have been immediate triggers for single ventricle palliation. Who is a good candidate for this sort of two ventricle approach and what anatomical types could be viewed as 'low lying fruit' for two ventricle palliation? How do early outcomes compare between these two very different approaches? Are we choosing Fontan approaches more commonly because of a perception of greater predictability? Is this true or accurate? Dr. Nicholas Andersen and Dr. Abhay Divekar of UTSW share their deep insights into this fascinating study and approach.

  • Pediheart Podcast #398: Outcomes Of Mild Aortic Valve Stenosis In Fetal Life
    Oct 9 2026
    This week we delve into the world of fetal cardiology to review a recent work on mild aortic stenosis in fetal life. This is a rare finding and the outcomes of this varied. How commonly does this finding result in severe or critical aortic stenosis? Is there a risk for hypoplastic left heart syndrome? Are there findings that would auger and better or worse outcome for this observation? How should patient families be counseled when encountering this finding on a fetal scan? Associate Professor of Pediatrics at Stanford University, Dr. Michelle Kaplinski shares her deep insights this week.

  • Pediheart Podcast #397: Outcomes For Balloon Dilation Of Severe And Critical Aortic Stenosis In Early Infancy
    Oct 2 2026
    This week we explore a recent PHIS database study assessing clinical outcomes for transcatheter balloon dilation of the aortic valve in the setting of aortic valve stenosis in early life. Why do critical AS patients fare less well than those with severe AS? Is this an issue of procedural failure or patient characteristics? Is there adequate equipoise for a study comparing surgery to balloon dilation? Is such a study even feasible given the present day levels of surgical experience with neonatal aortic valve surgery? These are amongst the questions posed to Associate Professor of Pediatrics at Vandarbilt University, Dr. George Nicholson who is the senior author of this week's work.
