[Veinous return from the inferior vena cava into the left atrium after surgical correction of Fallot's tetralogy].

A child of 6 presented with a syndrome of gross respiratory distress together with persistant arterial desaturation, requiring ventilation for maintenance of life, occurring after the apparently straightforward correction of a Fallot's tetralogy. Postoperative investigation on the 15th day showed the reasons for the desaturation: there was a massive right-left shunt caused by flow from the inferior vena cava into the auricle of the left atrium through a low atrial septal defect which had not been recognised. Reoperation on the 15th day to close the atrial septal defect corrected the condition satisfactorily.

[Solitary hemangioma of the liver manifested by neonatal heart failure].

A new case of solitary angioma of the liver, complicated with heart failure, is reported in a newborn. The rarity of this anatomo-clinical form is emphasized, and the interest of venous catheterization, which permitted an angiogram of good quality, is underlined. Radiotherapy was so rapidly efficient that one is incited to promote this treatment before any other, especially in cases where surgery involves major risks.
