A rare type of congenital heart disease is an interrupted aortic arch (IAA), which affects approximately 1.5% of congenital heart disease patients. Interrupted aortic arch is an anomaly that can be considered the most severe form of aortic coarctation. In an IAA, there is an anatomical and luminal disruption between..

Read MoreInterrupted (IAA) is an extremely rare CHD defined as the loss of luminal continuity between the . Its clinical presentation, including , , or severe CHF in the first 2 weeks of life, is similar to severe , although the developmental mechanisms involved in their generation seem to be different. IAA is characterized by a..
Read MoreCommon arterial trunk (CAT), or truncus arteriosus, is a rare form of cyanotic congenital heart disease and is highly associated with DiGeorge syndrome (microdeletion 22q11.2). Prenatal diagnosis is highly feasible, allowing proper delivery planning and postnatal management. The clinical presentation is highly variable depending on the anatomical variation; however, most..
