چکیده
Case Report A boy of four years was first referred to the school cardiac clinic on account of a murmur heard at a routine examination. He had had pneumonia a year previously. He had not yet begun to talk. On examination at that time there was no cyanosis. A loud systolic murmur, accompanied by a thrill, was heard at the apex. An orthodiagram of the heart shadow showed prominence of the right auricle in the P.A. view. The cardiogram showed sinus rhythm with right bundle-branch block. He was seen at yearly intervals and at the age of 10 cardiac enlargement was detected clinically. The thrill and murmur were unchanged. The cardiogram again showed sinus rhythm and right bundle-branch

Five neonates with congenital tricuspid incompetence due to severe tethering of the tricuspid valve to the right ventricle by abnormal chordal and papillary muscle attachments are described. The abnormality was called tricuspid valvular dysplasia (TVD) if the basal insertion of the valve was normal and the Ebstein malformation if it was displaced into the sinus portion of the ventricle. In the ...

We confirm that congenital contractural arachnodactyly may exhibit serious cardiovascular and ophthalmic complications like Marfan's syndrome. The presence of iridodonesis further obscures the differentiation between classical ...
