Cardiovascular Abnormalities Associated with Heterotaxy Syndrome: A Case Series
Journal of the Indian Academy of Echocardiography & Cardiovascular Imaging, 2023 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 ...

Heterotaxy polysplenia syndrome in an adult female with complete endocardial cushion defect
Radiology Case Reports, 2021 Heterotaxy syndrome is a rare condition characterized by the abnormal arrangement of thoracoabdominal organs across the left-right axis of the body.It is generally classified as right and left atrial isomerism or asplenia and polysplenia syndrome, even ...

Heterotaxy Syndrome: Discordant Growth [PDF]
Cureus, 2021 Heterotaxy syndrome implies a discordance between placement of thoracic organs with respect to abdominal organs. A large number of these have associated congenital heart defects. This syndrome is unique as every patient is different and can have any permutation and combination of symptoms.

Heterotaxy – Res ipsos loquitur [PDF]
Cardiology in the Young, 2021 AbstractThe essence of so-called heterotaxy is the potential disharmony between the arrangement of the bronchuses, abdominal organs, and the atrial appendages. Accurate description of the heart, however, can only be provided by specific description of these features, all of which are readily discernible in the clinical setting.

, 2018 Mutation of ZIC3 causes X-linked heterotaxy, a syndrome in which the laterality of internal organs is disrupted. Analysis of model organisms and gene expression during early development suggests ZIC3-related heterotaxy occurs due to defects at the earliest stage of left-right axis formation.

NPHP4 Variants Are Associated With Pleiotropic Heart Malformations [PDF]
, 2012 Rationale: Congenital heart malformations are a major cause of morbidity and mortality, especially in young children. Failure to establish normal left-right (L-R) asymmetry often results in cardiovascular malformations and other laterality defects of ...
