چکیده
Nondestructive, high-resolution 3-dimensional (3D) imaging of the embryonic heart remains a challenge in cardiovascular development research. In the past, several imaging techniques (eg, magnetic resonance microscopy, optical coherence tomography) were tested for their suitability to visualize the 3D morphology of embryonic hearts. Most of these imaging tools have their drawbacks with respect to resolution and depth penetration. Here we

متن کاملHolt-Oram Syndrome: A Rare Variant
Holt-Oram syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder, characterised by skeletal abnormalities of the upper limb associated with congenital heart defect, mainly atrial and ventricular septal defects. Skeletal defects exclusively affect the upper limbs in the preaxial radial ray distribution and are bilateral and asymmetrical. They range from clinodactyly, absent or digitalised thumb, hypoplastic...
متن کاملRight atrial isomerism: preponderance in Asian fetuses. Using the stomach-distance ratio as a possible diagnostic tool for prediction of right atrial isomerism.
INTRODUCTION To present the characteristics and spectrum of associated anomalies in right- and left-sided isomerism in our local population and to assess the possibility of using stomach-distance ratio (SDR) of less than 0.34 as a diagnostic tool to predict right atrial isomerism. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a retrospective study of fetuses in our department over a period of 8 years with p...
متن کاملLeft juxtaposition of the auricles with l-position of the aorta. Report of 6 cases.
Six hearts are described in which juxtaposition of the auricles to the left of the great arteries (left juxtaposition) was associated with l-postion of the aorta. Atrial anatomy was abnormal but constant; the os of the right auricle occupied the expected site of the atrial septum, producing posterior and inferior desplacement of this structure. This is of importance since the os could be mistak...
متن کاملThe double outlet right ventricle with additional cardiac malformations: an anatomic and echocardiographic study.
Double outlet right ventricle (DORV) is a complex group of abnormal ventriculoarterial connections where both the aorta and pulmonary artery rise from the right ventricle morphologically. It is a rare condition affecting 1-1.5% of patients with congenital heart disease. The patient's cardiac measurements were taken by two-dimensional echocardiography. The pathological findings of the defined ca...
