    Abstract We present a case of anatomic repair of dextro-transposition of the great arteries (d-TGA) with ventricular septal defect (VSD) in a 55-year-old man who presented with acute heart failure. This case highlights the importance of multimodal imaging and multidisciplinary involvement in developing a comprehensive surgical and medical plan for adults with congenital heart disease. We think this is the oldest reported patient undergoing anatomic surgical repair of d-TGA with VSD.

    Abstract An 11-year-old, previously healthy boy presented to the emergency center (EC) for acute respiratory distress in the setting of 5 months of recurrent and worsening rash with progressive fatigue, shortness of breath, chest pain, and cough. At the onset of his rash, he and his younger brothers were diagnosed with roseola. Although his brothers' symptoms resolved, the patient's rash recurred, prompting his primary care provider to prescribe amoxicillin. The rash subsequently worsened, so amoxicillin was stopped; a prednisone course was prescribed which alleviated the rash. Upon completion of the prednisone course, the rash returned more diffusely with associated symptoms of shortness of breath, chest pain, and cough. Because of these symptoms, his mother brought him to the EC, where his vitals were notable for tachypnea and tachycardia. His initial EC imaging workup was remarkable for an echocardiogram with a mild to moderate circumferential pericardial effusion, chest x-ray (CXR) with a large right pleural effusion, and chest computerized tomography significant for prominent and diffuse mediastinal and hilar lymphadenopathy with numerous enlarged axillary lymph nodes. Laboratory results were notable for elevated liver enzymes, inflammatory markers, d-dimer, and brain natriuretic peptide. Differential diagnosis remained broad, including infectious, oncologic, and rheumatologic etiologies. Our panel of experts reviews the evaluation, hospital course, and treatment of this patient presenting with an unusual rash and serositis.

    Abstract Objective: Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a leading cause of premature death in infants and children. Currently limited data are available regarding lesion specific mortality over time. Our study aimed to describe pediatric mortality trends by CHD lesion in the United States.
    Methods: We conducted a 19 year analysis (1999 to 2017) of publicly available, deidentified multiple cause of death data compiled and produced by the National Center for Health Statistics. Analysis was stratified by CHD diagnosis and age using 3 age categories (infants, 1 to 4 years, and 5 to 17 years). Temporal trends of CHD mortality and the effect of contributing risk factors were analyzed by using joinpoint regression.
    Results: Mortality was highest for in infants for all CHD lesions, in particular for total anomalous pulmonary venous return. Significant declines in infant CHD mortality occurred for most other lesions. Contributing risk factors, including prematurity, extracardiac birth defects, and genetic conditions, occurred in 19% of infant CHD deaths and demonstrated worse mortality trends in the majority of lesions. Mortality rates remained highest for single ventricle lesions in all ages, with an infant mortality rate plateau in the later half of the study and progressive increasing mortality rates for children 5 to 17 years.
    Conclusions: CHD mortality is decreasing for most lesions. Because of the heterogenicity of CHD lesions, there is expected variability in mortality trends by lesion and age group. Single ventricle lesions continue to contribute most heavily to premature death because of CHD demonstrated by significant increases in mortality rate for children aged 5 to 17 years.

    Abstract Purpose: Women who experience homelessness during pregnancy have poorer birth outcomes than the general population. This exploratory research describes the needs assessment of homeless women currently living at a shelter in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to identify unmet needs related to maternal and infant perinatal health as the first step in designing a mutually beneficial patient-centered service-learning program for medical students to address these needs.
    Methods: Two 1-hour focus groups were held at a shelter for women who are homeless and/or victims of domestic violence. A total of 13 women participated in each session; four medical students and a physician served as facilitators and scribes at each session. The facilitators alternated asking predetermined open- and close-ended questions, followed by discussion among participants. Questions elicited experiences during pregnancy, what went well, what women living in the shelter struggled with, and what support they wished for but did not have. Scribes captured the conversation through hand-written notes and used content analysis in order of frequency.
    Results: Thirteen themes were identified. The 5 most frequently identified themes were a need for pregnancy education, access/transportation, baby care, advocacy, and material necessities. Participating shelter residents and the medical students expressed interest in working with one another and forming a long-term partnership with the shelter.
    Conclusions: Results of this needs assessment will inform the creation of a new shelter-based medical education program that will meet homeless women's needs while preparing medical students for patient-centered, community-responsive care.
