Abstract

In order to evaluate the incidence of cardiac anomalies, type of cardiac defects, and their impact in the Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RTS), a questionnaire study was done. Forty-five of 138 patients in the study (32.6%) had a known cardiac abnormality; 27 patients had single defects including atrial septal defect (ASD), ventricular septal defect (VSD), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), coarctation of the aorta, pulmonic stenosis, or bicuspid aortic valve. Eight of these individuals had spontaneous resolution of their problems, while 8 required surgery. Sixteen patients had complex congenital heart defects or two or more abnormalities. Two patients had spontaneous resolution, while 7 required surgery. Surgery is planned in 5 additional patients. Five patients had conduction abnormalities. Individuals with congenital heart defects did not have a higher incidence of other birth defects. The significant incidence and potential severity of cardiac anomalies in our patients suggest that a cardiac evaluation should be strongly considered in patients with RTS.
