Ventricular Topology in Congenital Heart Defects Associated with Heterotaxy: Can We Find Patterns Reflecting the Syndrome-Specific Tendency for Visceral Symmetry? [PDF]

Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease
Heterotaxy syndrome is characterized by a tendency for bilaterally symmetric arrangement (isomerism) of inner organs. It is frequently associated with complex congenital heart defects (CHDs).

Heterotaxy Syndrome [PDF]

Korean Circulation Journal, 2011
Heterotaxy is defined as an abnormality where the internal thoraco-abdominal organs demonstrate abnormal arrangement across the left-right axis of the body. This broad term includes patients with a wide variety of very complex cardiac lesions. Patients with heterotaxy can be stratified into the subsets of asplenia syndrome and polysplenia syndrome, or ...
