A Rare Variation of the Heterotaxy Syndrome [PDF]
Case Reports in Medicine, 2012 Heterotaxy syndrome is a rare, complex, and confusing type of the situs anomalies. It is not possible to estimate the degree of lateralization, isomerism, and rotational variation in these types of cases.

, 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.

Acute appendicitis in a patient with heterotaxy syndrome
Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2018 Heterotaxy syndrome, also known as situs ambiguous, is a congenital condition that results in an abnormal distribution of visceral organs in the chest and abdomen. Heterotaxy syndrome has generally been categorized into two forms: a left-atrial isomerism

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.

Echocardiography in Heterotaxy Syndrome
World Journal for Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery, 2011 The important anatomic aspects of heterotaxy syndrome can be diagnosed by Doppler echocardiography in the newborn and infant. An organized approach and an understanding of asplenia (right atrial isomerism) and polysplenia (left atrial isomerism) are integral to the echocardiographic study.

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 ...

Heterotaxy Syndrome with Polysplenia, Fused Adrenal Glands, and Diabetes Mellitus
Clinical Medicine Insights: Cardiology, 2022 Heterotaxy syndrome is a rare congenital heart disease with a disarrangement of the heart and abdominal organs. We present a young African female with features of heart failure, diffuse irregular cardiac murmurs, and palpable, tender epigastric mass.
