[Infection of polytetrafluorethylene prosthesis in modified Blalock-Taussig anastomosis].

A 16 month-old baby submitted to systemic-pulmonary shunt with a polytetrafluorethylene prosthesis, who presented hyperthermia, radiologic signs of pulmonary opacifications and positive culture for staphylococcus aureus. Reoperation disclosed a prosthesis pseudoaneurysm, with disconnection of the anastomosis and evidences of infection. This complication has a low diagnostic rate and a high mortality and should always be suspected when signs of systemic infection become apparent in the postoperative period of polytetrafluorethylene systemic-pulmonary shunt.

Incorporating knowledge to databases--a solution to complex domains.

This paper describes the design of an integrated environment to handle information on congenital heart disease patients. A three-layer model that integrates a database, a knowledge-base and a graphical user-interface is presented. The role of each layer and its connections is discussed. The advantages of using a hypertext front-end system to present and retrieve complex data are also addressed. The current status of the project and its future developments are described in the final section.
