Core Tip |
Right atrial isomerism is associated with severe congenital heart disease, abnormal arrangement of internal organs, and asplenia/spleen hypoplasia. Infants with right atrial isomerism palliated with the systemic-to-pulmonary shunt have a “diastolic steal” of mesenteric blood flow, which increases the risk of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). The role of the microbiome in cardiogenic NEC remains unclear. This case report highlights possible interactions between dynamic changes in the fecal microbiome before and after cardiac surgery and development of recurrent NEC, based on hemodynamic changes, mesenterial perfusion, and antibacterial treatment in an asplenic infant with right atrial isomerism who underwent palliative cardiac surgery. |
