COMPLETED
Systemic and Local Diffusion of Ethanol After Administration of Ethanol 96% Formulated in a Gel and Ethanol 98% Solution by the Percutaneous Route, in Patients With Congenital Venous Malformations:Pharmacokinetic, Pharmacodynamic and Clinical Study.
Description

Absolute ethanol has been used "off-label" as an unmodified formulation (solution) in Congenital Venous Malformations (CVM). Despite its effectiveness, absolute ethanol appears difficult to handle because of its high diffusion capacity outside the CVM and in the blood circulation. A less diffusible ethanol-based product (ethanol gel) has been developed in order to minimize systemic and local diffusion capacities of ethanol. Therefore, the pharmacokinetic parameters and their clinical and paraclinical outcomes between ethanol gel 96% and absolute ethanol need to be carried out.

Review of Descending Aortic Flow Reversal in Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection
Description

This is a retrospective review of charts and echocardiograms of our patients with Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection (TAPVC). The Children's Surgical and non-invasive Echo databases will be used to determine all TAPVC patients. Children's Healthcare of Atlanta and Sibley Heart Center Cardiology charts and echocardiograms of the TAPVC patients between January 1, 2002 and November 26, 2006 will be reviewed. We anticipate approximately 40 patients. We hypothesize that the presence of descending aortic flow reversal correlates with a higher morbidity and mortality in TAPVC.
