چکیده

T HIS PAPER was written first in 1960. At that time cases of the complete form of persistent common atrioventricular canal or endocardial cushion defect were regarded as consisting of an ostium primum defect of the atrial septum, a cleft in the anterior cusp of the mitral valve, a cleft in the septal cusp of the tricuspid valve, and an interventricular septal defect. Partial forms of the defect had only the first two anomalies, and transitional forms had the first three. Wakai and Edwards,1 however, had pointed out that the ventricular septum showed an unusual concavity below the atrioventricular valves in the partial and transitional forms. Tissue resembling fused chordae might be seen filling a gap between this concavity and the valves. Accessory chordae tendineae between mitral cusps and the ventricular septum were held to hinder mobility of the sutured cleft and lead to persistent mitral insufficiency postoperatively.2 It was evident from clinical, hemodynamic, and surgical studies3 that not all cases had mitral insufficiency. Yet the accepted surgical treatment was complete suture of the free edges of the mitral cleft and patching of the ostium primum defect of the interatrial septum.3 Interventricular septal defects when present were closed either by means of a patch sutured to the septum and the under surface of the atrioventricular valves or by the suture of the valves down to the top of the concavity

Cor triloculare biventriculare with left superior vena cava.

Cor triloculare biventriculare is a rare congenital malformation of the heart in which there is a complete absence of the atrial septum. It is usually associated with other anomalies like complete atrioventricular canal defect, polysplenic syndrome, isolated dextrocardia, Ellis-van Creveld syndrome, or persistent left superior vena cava. We report a case of a stillborn male foetus of 35 weeks g...

Tetralogy of Fallot associated with persistent common atrioventricular canal (endocardial cushion defect).

A clinicopathological analysis was made of I3 cases in which the anatomical characteristics of tetralogy of Fallot were associated either with the classicalfeatures of the complete type of persistent common atrioventricular canal (8 cases) or with a forme fruste of the latter (5 cases); that is, cleft tricuspid valve (4 cases) and isolated ostium primum (one). The ratio offemale to male was IO ...

Ebstein's anomaly in persistent common atrioventricualr canal.

This report documents 2 patients who presented with cyanosis early in life. In both instances the necropsy showed the simultaneous occurrence of an imcomplete type of persistent atrioventricular canal and an Ebstein's malformation of the "tricuspid" valve component. In the first patient no clinical investigations were done. In the second patient the electrocardiogram was consistent with persist...
