Persistent Truncus Arteriosus with Aortic Dominance in Female Adult Patient
نویسندگان
چکیده
Persistent truncus arteriosus categories associated with different natural histories and various surgical approaches were reported. Although pulmonary overflow and severe heart failure are common, some patients who have hypoplastic pulmonary artery systems may show lesser symptoms of heart failure and remain in relatively stable condition. We experienced a 33-year-old woman with uncorrected type II persistent truncus arteriosus who presented with cyanosis rather than congestive heart failure, and are presenting her images.

Truncus arteriosus with aortic arch interruption: cardiovascular magnetic resonance findings in the unrepaired adult
Truncus arteriosus (TA) is a rare congenital condition defined as a single arterial vessel arising from the heart that gives origin to the systemic, pulmonary and coronary circulations. We discuss the unique case of a 28 year-old female patient with unrepaired TA and interruption of the aortic arch who underwent cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR).

متن کاملDiagnosis of persistent truncus arteriosus by two-dimensional echocardiography: a case study.
Two-dimensional echocardiography of a patient revealed overriding of the large aortic trunk which bifurcated above the semilunar valve, suggesting persistent truncus arterious. This diagnosis was confirmed by cardiac catheterization and angiocardiography. Surgery and autopsy also confirmed the accuracy of the two dimensional echocardiographic findings. Two-dimensional echocardiography is thus v...
متن کاملRepair of persistent truncus arteriosus with interrupted aortic arch.
OBJECTIVE The aim of our study was to analyse experience with repair of truncus arteriosus with interrupted aortic arch. METHODS Between 1993 and 2004, eight consecutive patients underwent repair of truncus arteriosus with interrupted aortic arch. The median age was 6.5 days (range 1-85 days) and median weight was 3.2 kg (range 2.6-4.8 kg). Five patients had type A and 3 patients had type B a...
متن کاملAssociation of VACTERL with truncus arteriosus, left-sided aortic arch, hypoplastic pulmonary arteries, and severe radial axis defect
Background: VACTERL association is usually a sporadic disorder, the possible etiologies of which have been proposed as familial as well as multiple genetic and environmental factors. VACTERL association usually consists of at least three of the core features of vertebral defects, anal atresia, cardiac defects, tracheoesophageal fistula, renal anomalies, and limb abnormalities. Vertebral anomali...
