Popis: Background: Due to the improved survival rates of children and adolescents with congenital heart disease (CHD), more attention is now being directed towards their health-related quality of life (HRQoL), emotional and behavioral problems. Ebstein anomaly (EA) is a rare CHD with a broad clinical spectrum. The aim of the current study is to evaluate self- and proxy-reported HRQoL and emotional and behavioral problems in children and adolescents with EA. Methods: In this cross-sectional, multicenter study, we included EA patients (aged 8-17 years), who underwent routine clinical assessments in Dutch university hospitals between May 2017 and March 2019. The Generic Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory 4.0 (for ages 8-12/13-17 years) was used to assess HRQoL. The Child Behavior Checklist, Youth Self-Report and Teacher's Report Form were completed to measure emotional and behavioral problems. Results: Questionnaires for thirty-eight patients (median age: 13 years; 48% male) were completed by patients themselves, parents and teachers. Compared to normative data, self-reported HRQoL was not significantly impaired, except for social functioning in children aged 8-12 years. Gender, severity of tricuspid regurgitation or previous surgery did not predict HRQoL. Parents reported significantly more internalizing (anxiety/depression), attention and thought problems in children with EA. These problems, however, were not reported by adolescents themselves. School teachers reported significantly fewer externalizing problems compared to the norm. Conclusions: Overall, despite satisfactory HRQoL, children and adolescents show emotional and behavioral problems. We recommend routine HRQoL and psychological assessment to screen for less apparent internalizing and psychosocial problems.
