Pediatric Cardiology Evaluation for: Angel Alberto Lopez Perez
DOB: 5/19/06

History: 5 month old with murmur and FTT.

PMHx:
Medications: digoxin, spironolactone

P: RR: BP: SaO2: 90%
GEN: somewhat dysmorphic HEART:
Active precordium, III/VI high pitched SEM @ LUSB, No rubs, clicks or gallopHEENT: MMM, Nl dentition
LUNGS: CTA b/l w/o W/R/R
ABD: Soft, w/o liver 3 cm
EXT:W & WP, Nl distal pulses

CXR: tet like cardiac sillouette

ECHO:
Situs: solitus
Systemic and PulmonaryVeins: Normal connections
Atrial Septum: PFO
Ventricular Septum: malaligned VSD
Aortic valve: Normal
Pulmonary Valve and Artery: PS with 50mmHg gradient, infundibulum somewhat narrow, branch PAs OK.
Mitral Valve: Normal
Tricuspid Valve: Physiologic TR
Aortic Arch: leftward, no coarctation, no PDA

Impression: Tetralogy of Fallot with FTT and likely TORCH, h/o congenital cataract and Dev delay


Recommendation: good surgical candidate during the first year of life from a cardiovascular standpoint, would like to see him gaining weight prior to surgical repair as well as further delineation of possible sequellae from TORCH. Would start propranolol 2mg/kg/day divided TID. Stop digoxin and spironolactone
