Abstract

Transient hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is rarely seen in neonates. We have reported a term neonate with transient right ventricular hypertrophy, diagnosed with echocardiographic investigation on the third day of life and interestingly disappeared within 10 weeks without any specific treatment. Transient right ventricular hypertrophy has not attracted enough attention in the pediatric cardiologic literature. It is well known that during pregnancy, maternal consumption of polyphenol-rich substances may cause fetal ductal constriction. In our case, this anomaly might be due to premature closure of ductus arteriosus. We have reported such a case because of the rarity of this anomaly and we wanted to attract attention about the nutrition of pregnant women

Özet

Yenidoğan döneminde geçici hipertrofik kardiyomiyopati nadir görülmektedir. Term olarak dünyaya gelen ve yaşamının üçüncü gününde yapılan ekokardiyografik inceleme ile sağ ventrikül hipertrofisi tespit edilen bir yenidoğan olgusu sunulmuştur. Rutin takiplerinde ilginç bir şekilde 10 hafta içinde hipertrofinin herhangi bir tedavi uygulanmadan kendiliğinden düzeldiği görüldü. Geçici sağ ventrikül hipertrofisi pediatrik kardiyoloji literatüründe yeterince yer almamıştır. Gebelik süresince polifenol içeriği yüksek besinlerin tüketiminin duktusun erken kapanmasına neden olduğu bilinmektedir. Olgumuzda görülen sağ ventrikül hipertrofisi duktus arteriyozusun erken kapanmasına bağlı gelişmiş olabilir. Geçici sağ ventrikül hipertrofisi nadir görülmesi nedeniyle ve annelerin gebelik döneminde intrauterin duktusun erken kapanmasına neden olabilecek besinler yönünden dikkatli olunması gerektiğini vurgulamak amacıyla bu olgu sunulmuştur.
