DNAH6 and Its Interactions with PCD Genes in Heterotaxy and Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia. [PDF]
Heterotaxy, a birth defect involving left-right patterning defects, and primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), a sinopulmonary disease with dyskinetic/immotile cilia in the airway are seemingly disparate diseases.

Cardiovascular Abnormalities Associated with Heterotaxy Syndrome: A Case Series
Heterotaxy syndromes result from the failure of normal lateralization, resulting in the abnormal arrangement of cardiothoracic and abdominal viscera. These are associated with a disproportionate morbidity and mortality rate, mandating early diagnosis ...

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