: We present two patients who underwent cardiac surgery followed by post-operative low cardiac output, diastolic dysfunction and resistance to inotropic support. Despite aggressive medical management, both patients died. At autopsy the hearts were enlarged and showed previously undiagnosed myocardial and vascular amyloidosis. Occult cardiac amyloidosis is an uncommon, often occult, contributor to post-operative complications post cardiac surgery. Pre-operative or intra-operative myocardial biopsy may be useful in patients with unexplained diastolic dysfunction.

AbstractAimThe aims of this study were to examine the prevalence and potential correlates of feeding difficulties in infants who underwent cardiac surgery in the neonatal period and to investigate resource utilisation by infants with feeding difficulties.MethodsAll neonates who underwent their first cardiac surgery at the Heart Centre for Children, The Children’s Hospital at Westmead, between January and December, 2009 were included. Demographic, preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative data were collected via electronic medical records. For the purpose of this study, feeding difficulty was defined as the requirement for ongoing tube feeding at the time of discharge home or transfer to another hospital.ResultsOut of a total of 79 neonates, 24 (30%) were discharged home or transferred to another hospital with a feeding tube. Feeding difficulties were associated with the presence of a genetic syndrome (p<0.0001), assisted feeding preoperatively (odds ratio (OR)=4.4, p=0.03), and having a palliative procedure before biventricular repair (OR=5.1, p=0.02). Infants with feeding difficulties had significantly more reviews by speech pathologists (M=5.9, SD=7.9), dieticians (M=5.9, SD=5.4), and cardiac clinical nurse consultants (M=1.2, SD=1.4) compared with those without feeding difficulties.ConclusionsThis study identified factors that can be used in the early recognition of infant feeding difficulties, to help guide the direction of limited health resources, as well as being focal points for future research and clinical practice improvement.
