Double inlet left ventricle (DILV) with double outlet right ventricle…

Double inlet left ventricle (DILV) is a form of functionally univentricular heart where both the left and the right atrium are connected to the morphologically left ventricle. Usually, the morphologically right ventricle is hypoplastic. The anatomic heterogeneity in the group of DILV hearts is characterized by the position of the..

Doubled chambered right ventricle

Double-chambered right ventricle (DCRV) was first described in 1858 by TB Peacock, but it is now understood to be a form of congenital heart disease wherein there is a mid-cavitary obstruction that dived the right ventricle into a high-pressure proximal portion and a low-pressure distal portion. DCRV can classify into two..

Double aortic arch

Introduction Double aortic arch is the most common type of vascular ring malformation. It involves the complete encirclement and compression of the trachea and/or esophagus by the aortic arch, its branches, or atretic ligamentous segments. Left untreated, it may lead to significant morbidity for the patient and can result in..

Discordant criss cross AV connection

A heart with a criss-cross atrioventricular (AV) connection is a cardiopathy in which the ventricles are positioned contralaterally to the atria to which they are connected; the ventricular inflow tracts are crossed, hence the name criss-cross. In 1961 various cases of AV discordance with or without ventriculoarterial (VA) discordance were..

Discordant criss cross AV connection with ventricular septal defect (VSD)

A heart with a criss-cross atrioventricular (AV) connection is a cardiopathy in which the ventricles are positioned contralaterally to the atria to which they are connected; the ventricular inflow tracts are crossed, hence the name criss-cross.

Discordant criss cross AV connection with concordant ventriculo-arterial (VA) connection

A heart with a criss-cross atrioventricular (AV) connection is a cardiopathy in which the ventricles are positioned contralaterally to the atria to which they are connected; the ventricular inflow tracts are crossed, hence the name criss-cross. In 1961 various cases of AV discordance with or without ventriculoarterial (VA) discordance were..

Dextroposition

Dextroposition of the : The heart is displaced to the right (from its usual location in the left chest). There is no anatomic alteration in the heart itself, just in its location. Dextroposition occurs when the contents of the left side of the chest shove the heart to the right or when..
