pediatric cardiofacial syndrome
Introduction
Introduction to Pediatric Heart Syndrome Cardiofacial syndrome (cardiofacialsyndrome) is also known as asymmetric crying face, congenital mouth palpebral dysplasia syndrome. In 1969, Cayler found that intrinsic patients were often accompanied by cardiovascular malformations. It is characterized by dysplasia or loss of the horn muscle of the mouth, which causes the patient's lower lip to be asymmetrical when crying. basic knowledge The proportion of illness: 0.04%-0.08% Susceptible people: children Mode of infection: non-infectious Complications: pediatric tetralogy of Fallot capillary hemangioma
Cause
Causes of pediatric heart syndrome
Cause:
The cause of this disease is still unknown.
Pathogenesis
This symptom is a congenital disease, and the pathogenesis is still unclear. Because the disease has obvious family morbidity, the family members of the patient should be routinely examined.
Prevention
Pediatric heart syndrome prevention
prevention:
1, because the disease has a family morbidity, so the family members of the patient should be checked accordingly to confirm the diagnosis, should do a good job in the consultation of genetic diseases.
2, regular physical examination: to achieve early detection, early diagnosis, early treatment.
3, do a good job of follow-up: to prevent the disease from getting worse.
Complication
Pediatric heart syndrome complications Complications Children's tetralogy of Fallot capillary hemangioma
Often accompanied by various deformities, as mentioned above.
Symptom
Symptoms of heart syndrome in children Common symptoms Vascular malformation Facial malformation Ventricular septal defect Atrial septal defect Mouth horn hypotrophy dysplasia Limb deformity
Due to dysplasia of the flank of the affected side, the lower lip cannot move downward when crying, causing the lower lip to be pulled asymmetrically to the healthy side. When not crying, the lower lip is symmetrical and the face is normal. More than 20% of the cases are accompanied by a mouth. Peripheral organs, such as soft palate, cleft lip, mandibular and ear dysplasia, skeletal deformities of the craniofacial and limbs, kidney deficiency, and mental retardation have also been reported.
Cardiovascular damage: 5% to 10% of cases with cardiovascular malformations, ventricular septal defect is common, in addition to tetralogy of Fallot, atrial septal defect, aortic transposition, tricuspid atresia, ventricular dysplasia and capillaries Tumors, etc.
Examine
Pediatric heart syndrome examination
There are no specific findings in routine laboratory tests.
X-ray chest, bone, echocardiography, electrocardiogram, etc. should be done.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis and diagnosis of pediatric heart syndrome
It can be diagnosed according to the characteristics of facial deformity and cardiovascular damage.
Different from simple congenital heart disease, this disease is accompanied by a deformed shape in which the lower lip is asymmetrically pulled to the healthy side when crying, which can help identify.
