There is no direct relation from solely HLHS to learning problems. The only link could be that during surgery, blood was cut off to the brain (a common occurrence in the Norwood Procedure) which lead to slight brain damage. This could result in a learning defect.

Also, the anesthesia during open heart surgery on an infant could affect brain development. But this would be in all cases, not just HLHS

How do you treat Fetal Alcohol Syndrome?

You don't treat it - you prevent it. Fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) is a serious health problem that tragically affects its victims and their families, but that is completely preventable.

They usually suffer from: • smaller heads • deformed facial features • abnormal joints and limbs • poor coordination • problems with learning • short memories Victims of fetal alcohol syndrome often experience mental health problems, disrupted school experience, inappropriate sexual behavior, trouble with the law, alcohol and drug problems, difficulty caring for themselves and their children, and homelessness.
