Neurodesenvolvimento na tetralogia de fallot e sua relação com outras cardiopatias congênitas: uma revisão narrativa
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
Conforme aumenta a sobrevida de pacientes com tetralogia de Fallot, observam-se alterações profundas no neurodesenvolvimento dessas crianças e adolescentes. O objetivo desta revisão narrativa é lançar um olhar abrangente sobre este tema, buscando compreender a relação íntima entre cérebro e coração nos pacientes com tetralogia de Fallot. Alterações do funcionamento neurológico ocorrem de forma frequente neste grupo de cardiopatia. Observam-se diversas disfunções, como alterações da função executiva, processamento de fala e linguagem, processamento visuoespacial, cognição social, entre outras. Achados de ressonância magnética cerebral não foram sistematicamente correlacionados com essas disfunções, mas métodos avançados de ressonância parecem ser promissores. Ainda assim, é necessário compreender melhor os fatores preditivos das alterações do neurodesenvolvimento. No que tange aos transtornos neuropsiquiátricos, diversos estudos apontaram maior ocorrência de alterações psiquiátricas de uma maneira geral, com especial atenção para o transtorno de déficit de atenção e hiperatividade. Fatores genéticos parecem ter influência significativa nessas alterações, embora a natureza multifatorial seja marcante. Vale ressaltar que achados sugestivos de alterações do desenvolvimento cerebral do feto vêm reforçando a importância de fatores genéticos, mas sem limitar a eles. Alterações hemodinâmicas que submetem o cérebro à maior hipoxemia intraútero parecem ter papel relevante nas alterações encontradas. Alterações do neurodesenvolvimento são, portanto, um cenário desafiador para todos os envolvidos com os cuidados de pacientes com tetralogia de Fallot. Compreender essa complexa relação pode trazer benefícios futuros no desenvolvimento de tratamentos que busquem melhor resultado neuropsiquiátrico no longo prazo.
