| shounie Total Posts: 4 | Posted: Tue Jan 15, 2008 06:37 am Images in Congenital Heart disease Cardiol Young 2007; 17: 111–112 © Cambridge University Press ISSN 1047-9511 doi: 10.1017/S1047951107000054 ANOMALIES OF THE AORTIC ARCH ARE RARE, WITH a right arch occurring in about 1 of every 1000 individuals. Unlike the right aortic arch co-existing with an aberrant left subclavian artery, the variant with mirror-imaged branching is often associated with congenital cardiac malformations, most commonly tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary stenosis or pulmonary atresia, and common arterial trunk. A right arch associated with bilateral arterial ducts and non-confluent pulmonary arteries is extremely uncommon. We could find but a single report of this combination, that patient having no associated intra-cardiac defects.1 Our patient was delivered uneventfully at term after an uncomplicated pregnancy. She was evaluated at 24 hours of life for asymptomatic cyanosis. An echocardiogram (Figs. 1 and 2) and a computed-tomography angiogram (Fig. 3) revealed the following: • A midline heart with mirror-imaged atrial arrangement, discordant atrioventricular connections, pulmonary atresia, and the aorta arising exclusively from the morphologically right ventricle (Fig. 1), • Large atrial and ventricular septal defects (VSD), • A right-sided aortic (Ao) arch (RAA) with mirrorimaged branching, _ Pulmonary atresia with non-confluent pulmonary arteries (Fig. 2), • The right pulmonary artery (RPA) arose from the descending aorta (Desc Ao) via a right-sided patent arterial duct (R-PAD) (Fig. 3), • The left pulmonary artery (LPA) arose from the left brachiocephalic artery (L-BCA) via a leftsided patent arterial duct (L-PAD) (Fig. 3). |
| shounie Total Posts: 4 | Posted: Tue Jan 15, 2008 06:38 am So guys the answer is TOF |
| Adidoc2k1 Total Posts: 60 | Posted: Tue Jan 15, 2008 06:44 am i think the question was self solved as TGA(transposition i.e rt to left n left to rt) would have been the answer if it was Uncorrected tga,why will any corrected tga have aorta on rt of pulm.so jus look at tof as the ans. |
