Double-outlet ventriculoarterial connection

Double outlet right ventricle.

Double outlet left ventricle.

A case, the sixth, ofdouble outlet left ventricle is reported, the diagnosis being made by cardiac catheterization and angiocardiography. Though the existence of such a malformation has been questioned on embryologicalgrounds, double outlet left ventricle must now be regarded as a recognized cardiac anomaly. The embryological significance of this case is discussed and it is suggested that the m...

double-outlet right ventricle

In a previous study the possibility that tetralogy of Fallot and transposition of the great arteries may arise as a result of embryonic arrests in the normal rotation of the junction of the outflow tract and the great arteries was investigated. The results suggested that the development of other transposition complexes such as double-outlet right ventricle might also be related to arrests in th...

Repair for the Anomalies of Ventriculoarterial Connection with Ventricular Septal Defect and Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction

Background/Introduction Anomalies of ventriculoarterial connection with ventricular septal defect (VSD) and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction such as transposition of the great arteries, double-outlet right ventricle, double-outlet left ventricle, and Taussig-Bing anomaly had a wide variety of spectrum, and several operative techniques have been performed according to diverse an...

Double outlet right ventricle: aetiologies and associations.

BACKGROUND Double outlet right ventricle (DORV), a clinically significant congenital heart defect, occurs in 1-3% of individuals with congenital heart defects. In contrast to other major congenital heart defects, there are no systematic or comprehensive data regarding associations, aetiologies, and pathogenesis of DORV. We analysed reported cases in the medical literature to address these issue...
