View detailsTriatrial heart
Cor triatriatum is a rare congenital heart malformation resulting from abnormal development of the primary septum, which forms an anomalous membrane within the left atrium, dividing it into an accessory chamber and the true left atrium. Alternatively, it can be caused by incomplete fusion of the common pulmonary vein trunk with the left atrium, where the common pulmonary vein trunk forms the accessory chamber. It accounts for approximately 0.1% to 0.4% of congenital heart diseases, with a higher incidence in males than in females.
Tricuspid atresia
The tricuspid valve is located at the right atrioventricular orifice of the heart, also known as the right atrioventricular valve. It acts like a "one-way valve," ensuring blood flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle. Tricuspid atresia, as the name suggests, means the tricuspid valve is closed. Once the tricuspid valve is atretic, blood cannot pass through, leading to hypoplasia or even aplasia of the right ventricle, which in turn causes a series of uncomfortable symptoms in the patient. This is a severe congenital heart disease with a poor prognosis and high mortality rate.
View detailsCorrected transposition of great arteries
Congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (CCTGA) is a type of transposition of the great arteries, characterized by ventriculoarterial discordance along with atrioventricular discordance. The human body has two types of blood circulation: systemic circulation and pulmonary circulation. Normally, systemic circulation follows the path: "left ventricle → aorta → systemic arteries → systemic capillaries → veins → right atrium," and pulmonary circulation follows the path: "right ventricle → pulmonary artery → pulmonary capillaries → pulmonary veins → left atrium." Transposition of the great arteries occurs when the right ventricle connects to the aorta and the left ventricle connects to the pulmonary artery. In patients with CCTGA, the anatomical left ventricle is connected to the pulmonary artery and, via the mitral valve, to the anatomical right atrium. The anatomical right ventricle is connected to the aorta and, via the tricuspid valve, to the anatomical left atrium. The anatomical right ventricle supports systemic circulation, while the anatomical left ventricle supports pulmonary circulation. This condition is clinically rare, and the vast majority of patients also have other intracardiac malformations, such as ventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, and age-related tricuspid valve abnormalities and heart block.
View detailsPentalogy of Fallot
Pentalogy of Fallot is a severe and complex cyanotic congenital heart disease that affects children's physical development and can even be life-threatening. It is characterized by five main cardiac structural abnormalities: right ventricular hypertrophy, ventricular septal defect, overriding aorta, right ventricular outflow tract obstruction (pulmonary stenosis), and patent foramen ovale or atrial septal defect, hence the name Pentalogy of Fallot. It can manifest as cyanosis, squatting spells, and dyspnea.
View detailsDouble outlet left ventricle
Double outlet left ventricle (DOLV) is a rare congenital cardiovascular malformation characterized by both great arteries originating from the left ventricle. The openings of both arteries are located on the same plane, with underdeveloped bilateral conus and conal muscles. The aortic valve and pulmonary valve are connected, as are the semilunar valves and the mitral valve. Additionally, hemodynamic changes occur. This condition can affect any newborn and is often associated with other cardiovascular diseases.
View detailsTrilogy of Fallot
Trilogy of Fallot is a congenital pulmonary artery disease, referring to a complex congenital cardiovascular malformation primarily characterized by pulmonary valve stenosis, accompanied by patent foramen ovale or atrial septal defect, and right ventricular hypertrophy. This disease is common in people under 20 years old. Main symptoms include shortness of breath, fatigue, chest pain, dizziness, and even syncope. Cyanotic facies may appear in childhood or adulthood, and clubbing of fingers and toes may be present.
