Aortic valve atresia with a normally developed left ventricle.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Aortic valve atresia is usually associated with hypoplasia of the left ventricle and mitral valve. We report a patient presenting aortic atresia with ventricular septal defect and a normally sized left ventricle. The electrocardiogram showed left axis deviation and left ventricular hypertrophy. The ventricular septal defect probably favored a normal growth of the left ventricle, allowing it to unload with systole.

Aortic atresia with normally developed left ventricle in a young adult.
Congenital aortic valve atresia is usually part of a developmental anomaly usually called 'hypoplastic left-heart syndrome'. To the best of our knowledge, most reported cases of aortic atresia have been associated with hypoplasia of the ascending aorta, of the left ventricle, and of the mitral valve. We report a patient presenting with aortic atresia with a ventricular septal defect and a norma...
متن کاملAortic atresia with normal left ventricle and intact ventricular septum.
We report a case of aortic atresia with biventricular hypertrophy and death due to cardiac insufficiency (at 5 1/2 days of age). In the necropsy a normally sized left ventricle was observed, with endocardiac fibroelastosis, anomalous mitral arcade, intact interventricular septum and atresia of the aortic valve. The ascending aorta was moderately hypoplasic; there was a foramen ovale and persist...
متن کاملAortic atresia occurring with complete transposition of great arteries.
Aortic atresia occurring with complete transposition of the great arteries (ventriculoarterial discordance) has not previously been reported. A patient with this condition is described, who is alive and relatively well at the age of 6 years. This survival contrasts conspicuously with that of patients with the far commoner situation of aortic atresia with normally connected great arteries. It is...
متن کاملAortic atresia with interrupted aortic arch: a combination incompatible with life?
Aortic valve atresia is a common feature of hypoplastic left heart syndrome, which consists of various degrees of underdevelopment of the left ventricle aorta complex; nevertheless it can also be associated with a large ventricular septal defect (VSD) and a rather developed left ventricle. Atresia of the aortic valve prevents antegrade blood flow from the left ventricle to the ascending aorta, ...
متن کاملAbsence of the aortic valve cusps with mitral atresia, normal left ventricle, and intact ventricular septum.
A case of a previously unreported anomaly is presented in which absence of the aortic valve cusps, mitral atresia, a normal left ventricle, and an intact ventricular septum were diagnosed by cross sectional echocardiography. The development of a normal left ventricle, rather than the hypoplastic ventricle usually associated with mitral atresia, is explained by filling of the ventricular cavity ...
