Surgical Management of the Pulmonary Circulation in Children [ 2017 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Matthew Yong (Principal investigator)

Brief description Congenital disorders of the lung circulation are rare. These children often present during infancy with symptoms of heart failure and require surgery to correct these defects. Without surgery, the prognosis of these conditions are poor. Our understanding of these conditions are limited. The proposed study aims to review all patients who underwent surgical repair of abnormalities of lung arteries and veins at the Royal Children’s Hospital.
