White Matter Hyperintensities Burden in Adult Patients With Cyanotic Congenital Heart Disease: a Pilot Study
September 12, 2022 updated by: Francesco Sardanelli, IRCCS Policlinico S. Donato
Assessment of White Matter Hyperintensities Burden in Adult Patients With Cyanotic Congenital Heart Disease: a Pilot Study
The study aims at investigating the role of cyanotic congenital heart disease (cCHD) on brain aging.
The investigators assume that due to congenital and acquired cardiovascular abnormalities, cCHD patients could show radiologic (and clinical) signs of precocious brain aging and eventual cognitive decline.

Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- for the patient group, being an adult subject affected with cyanotic congenital heart disease, whether surgically corrected or not.
- for the control group, being an healthy subject.
Exclusion Criteria:

- inflammatory, infectious, demyelinating or dysmyelinating diseases of the CNS;
- ischemic, haemorrhagic or traumatic brain events and eventual gliotic and malacic or lacunar sequelae;
- genetic diseases (whether mendelian or mitochondrial) of the CNS;
- cerebral amyloid angiopathy;
- CADASIL;
- cerebral arteriovenous malformations;
- primary or metastatic brain neoplasms which cause neurological symptoms and/or brain parenchymal sequelae from surgical excision;
- patent oval foramen;
- being pregnant;
- migraine with aura (Bashir, Lipton, Ashina, & Ashina, 2013).
