Fetal Heterotaxy with Tricuspid Atresia, Pulmonary Atresia, and Isomerism of the Right Atrial Appendages at 22 Weeks
We report the accurate prenatal diagnosis at 22 weeks gestation of right atrial isomerism in association with tricuspid atresia. Several distinctive sonographic features of isomerism of the right atrial appendages were present in this fetus: complex cardiac abnormality, ventriculoarterial discordance, juxtaposition of the aorta and the inferior vena cava to the right side, pulmonary atresia, an...
متن کاملMorphology of the sinus node in human and mouse hearts with isomerism of the atrial appendages.
BACKGROUND The location of the sinus node is known to be at best abnormal, or at worst unknown, in patients with isomerism of the morphologically left atrial appendage. In contrast, the sinus node is known to be an excellent histological marker of the morphologically right appendage, being duplicated in those with right isomerism. The aim of the study was to investigate this condition further i...
متن کاملFatal pneumococcal septicaemia associated with asplenia and isomerism of the right atrial appendages.
A 22 month old male infant with isomerism of the right atrial appendages (associated with a complete atrioventricular septal defect, double outlet right ventricle, and pulmonary valve stenosis) died from pneumococcal septicaemia after a 36 hour illness. He had not been given penicillin prophylaxis. Asplenia was confirmed at necropsy. In a survey of 50 paediatric cardiologists in the United King...
متن کاملAntenatal diagnosis of left atrial isomerism and heterotaxy syndrome in fetus with Meckel-Gruber syndrome.
We aimed to present a fetus with Meckel-Gruber syndrome (MKS) who had left atrial isomerism, heterotaxy syndrome and complete heart block. A 26-year-old healthy female was referred to our clinic in the 23rd week of her pregnancy. The fetus had multiple systemic anomalies including fetal heart. Fetal echocardiography revealed a horizontal liver, left-sided stomach and vena cava interruption with...
متن کامل[Juxtaposition of the atrial appendages].
Six cases of juxtaposition of the atrial appendages are documented by necropsied specimens and analyzed. A high incidence of conotruncal anomalies, especially transposition of the great arteries, further A-V valve abnormalities, and pulmonary valve atresia, is found. The recognition of juxtaposition of the atrial appendages during cardiac catheterization should alert the investigator to the pre...
