Unusual anatomical features of the right atrioventricular valve.

چکیده
Despite the great interest taken in the tricuspid valve, the anatomical literature on the subject still leaves much open to question. The aim of this study was to describe the natural foramina which are present in the leaflets of the tricuspid valve, as well as, well -- founded onto -- and phylogenetically lack of continuity of its attachment and the frenula of the tricuspid valve. We studied the frequency of occurrence and morphology of these features of the tricuspid valve in 107 adult hearts.

Tricuspid atresia with double-outlet left atrium.
Clinical and pathologic findings of an unusual case of cardiac malformation are presented. The main features were those of atresia of the right atrioventricular valve associated with two distinct atrioventricular orifices connecting the morphologically left atrium to the underlying morphologically left ventricle. Other distinguishing characteristics were ostium secundum atrial septal defect, no...

SUMMARY A new case of an unusual association of mitral atresia with single left ventricle is reported. The salient anatomic features include: (1) the right atrioventricular valve is atretic; (2) the left atrioventricular valve enters the large ventricle with morpho-logic characteristics of the left ventricle; and (3) this large ventricle communicates by way of an interventricular communication ...

OBJECTIVE To clarify the morphological features relating to an intermediate axis or a right axis deviation in atrioventricular septal defect (AVSD). SUBJECTS 135 patients with typical AVSD and with nine patients with atypical AVSD, characterised by a well formed atrial septum, a milder downward displacement of the atrioventricular valves, and a shorter length of the ostium primum defect. MA...
متن کاملRecognition of imperforate atrioventricular valves by two dimensional echocardiography.
The majority of hearts in which selective right or left atrial angiography shows no direct communication between one atrium and a ventricular chamber are considered to be examples of atresia of the right or left atrioventricular valves. Most patients presenting with the clinical features of tricuspid atresia have an absent right atrioventricular connection, while those with features of mitral a...
