Predicting the early childhood outcomes of preterm brain shape abnormalities
Our purpose is to look at the long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes of preterm neonatal brain abnormalities.

There is currently a lack of information on critical questions surrounding laterality of ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO), the difference between extrinsic and intrinsic obstruction, the utility of retrograde pyelogram, and the appropriate management for patients with concurrent UPJO and ureterovesical junction obstruction (UVJO). Therefore, we propose first a retrospective study of all pyeloplasty’s completed at CHLA for UPJO to answer some of these critical questions. The results of this study may inform future studies in this realm. We will retrospectively review all cases of pyeloplasty completed at CHLA (from 2000 through present) to identify differences in outcomes.
To determine the safety and feasibility of autologous umbilical cord blood-derived mononuclear cells delivered into the myocardium of the right ventricle during planned Stage II Glen surgical procedure for individuals with hypoplastic left heart syndrome.
To assess the survival rate of subjects at 6 and 12 months following implantation of the Bioabsorbable pulmonary valve conduit. To assess the rate of conduit failures at 6 months, requiring re-intervention or reoperation.
