with is a more severe form of TOF, a type of heart defect. It’s a congenital condition, which means it’s something a baby is born with. Babies who have TOF with pulmonary atresia have five heart abnormalities: (VSD) Overriding aorta: This means the aorta is moved toward the right side of heart,..
Lee masThe most common venous abnormality of the thorax is persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC), incidence being less than 0.5%. However, with congenital heart disease, it is about 6.1%. When the coronary sinus is dilated always search for PLSVC. The coronary sinus may communicate with the left atrium. This is known..

Lee masTricuspid atresia is a birth defect of the tricuspid valve, which is the valve that controls blood flow from the right atrium (upper right chamber of the heart) to the right ventricle (lower right chamber of the heart). Tricuspid atresia occurs when this valve doesn’t form at all, and no..
Lee masThe normal pumping chambers of the heart (the ventricles) must have an inflow valve to let blood in, a good-sized pumping chamber and an outflow to allow blood to exit the chamber during contraction. In tricuspid atresia, the tricuspid valve, which lies between the heart’s upper right chamber (the right atrium) and lower right..
