TETRALOGY OF FALLOT

Description

Tetralogy of Fallot is a congenital cardiac malformation that consists of an interventricular communication, also known as a ventricular septal defect, obstruction of the right ventricular outflow tract, override of the ventricular septum by the aortic root, and right ventricular hypertrophy.

Most common symptoms of TETRALOGY OF FALLOT

  • Growth delay
  • Muscle weakness
  • Cryptorchidism
  • Anemia
  • Brachydactyly

TRUNCUS ARTERIOSUS

Alternate names

TRUNCUS ARTERIOSUS Is also known as common aorticopulmonary trunk, common arterial trunk, tac

Description

Truncus arteriosus (TA) is a rare congenital cardiovascular anomaly characterized by a single arterial trunk arising from the heart by means of a single semilunar valve (i.e. truncal valve). Pulmonary arteries originate from the common arterial trunk distal to the coronary arteries and proximal to the first brachiocephalic branch of the aortic arch. TA typically overrides a large outlet ventricular septal defect (VSD). The intracardiac anatomy usually displays situs solitus and atrioventricular (AV) concordance.

CONOTRUNCAL HEART MALFORMATIONS; CTHM

Most common symptoms of CONOTRUNCAL HEART MALFORMATIONS; CTHM

  • Intellectual disability
  • Global developmental delay
  • Hypertelorism
  • Cleft palate
  • Depressed nasal bridge

FAMILIAL ATRIAL FIBRILLATION

Alternate names

FAMILIAL ATRIAL FIBRILLATION Is also known as atrial fibrillation, autosomal dominant

Description

Familial atrial fibrillation is a rare, genetically heterogenous cardiac disease characterized by erratic activation of the atria with an irregular ventricular response, in various members of a single family. It may be asymptomatic or associated with palpitations, dyspnea and light-headedness. Concomitant rhythm disorders and cardiomyopathies are frequently reported.

Most common symptoms of FAMILIAL ATRIAL FIBRILLATION

  • Pain
  • Respiratory distress
  • Arrhythmia
  • Stroke
  • Dilated cardiomyopathy
