Prenatal diagnosis of complete atrioventricular septal defect with truncus arteriosus.
Truncus arteriosus (TA) is a rare cardiac anomaly constituting less than 1% of all congenital heart defects. Its association with complete atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) is extremely unusual and only 12 cases diagnosed postnatally or postmortem have been reported so far. We describe the first case of truncus arteriosus with AVSD to be diagnosed prenatally by fetal echocardiography.
متن کاملDown Syndrome with Unbalanced Complete Atrioventricular Septal Defect and Truncus Arteriosus
Truncus arteriosus (TA) is a rare cardiac anomaly constituting less than 1% of all congenital heart defects. The association of complete atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD) and truncus arteriosus is uncommon. The management of this uncommon combination of lesions has not been well characterized and there is limited surgical options for treatment of these patients. We present our case report o...
متن کاملComplete repair in total atrioventricular canal defect with cyanosis.
Atrioventricular septal defects account for 4% of congenital cardiac malformations and over 50% of cardiac defects seen in Down syndrome. Clinical presentation is marked by congestive heart failure early in infancy. Cyanosis is rarely found in infants and suggests irreversible pulmonary hypertension or associated cardiac defects as tetralogy of Fallot, double outlet right ventricle, Ebstein ano...
متن کاملRepair of truncus arteriosus.
When commenting on the paper of Danton and colleagues concerning surgical repair of the common arterial trunk, I pointed out that their optimal procedure was first described by the late Kenneth Reid [1]. They indicated in the discussion that they would modify this manuscript accordingly. Sadly, they did not [2]. That does not, however, detract from Mr Reid’s precedence with this particular proc...
متن کاملAtrioventricular Canal Defect
IT is welcome to see a fourth edition of this useful textbook for students. The authors are to be congratulated on bringing out a further edition without notably increasing the length of this book, although their efforts to condense their material do lead to some difficulty. For example, on page 92, the 13 lines devoted to the natural history of breast cancer would almost certainly lead the stu...
