Genetic steps to organ laterality in zebrafish. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
All internal organs are asymmetric along the left-right axis. Here we report a genetic screen to discover mutations which perturb organ laterality. Our particular focus is upon whether, and how, organs are linked to each other as they achieve their ...

A catheter-based interventional strategy redirects hepatic vein flows after Fontan procedure in left isomerism to treat severe hypoxemia

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2022
Pulmonary arteriovenous malformations after the Kawashima procedure causing severe hypoxemia are treated by Fontan surgery that redirects hepatic venous blood to the pulmonary circulation.

Heterotaxy

open access: yesJournal of Marine Medical Society, 2022
Heterotaxy syndrome is an uncommon disease, with an incidence ranging from 1 in 6000 to 1 in 20,000 live births.[1] This syndrome is characterized by major cardiac vascular malformations, congenital asplenia, polysplenia, and abnormal arrangement of the chest and abdominal organs.

Ccdc11 is a novel centriolar satellite protein essential for ciliogenesis and establishment of left-right asymmetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The establishment of left–right (L-R) asymmetry in vertebrates is dependent on the sensory and motile functions of cilia during embryogenesis. Mutations in CCDC11 disrupt L-R asymmetry and cause congenital heart disease in humans, yet the molecular and ...

Recovery of cyanosis after esophageal intubation in a neonate with tracheal agenesis: a case report

open access: yesThe Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2022
Background. Tracheal agenesis (TA) is a rare congenital defect that consists of a complete or partial absence of the trachea below the larynx, with or without tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF).

Outcome of prenatally diagnosed fetal heterotaxy: A systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
OBJECTIVES: To assess the perinatal outcomes of fetuses affected by heterotaxy. METHODS: Medline, Embase and Cinhal were searched. Only studies reporting a prenatal diagnosis of isomerism were included.

Acute appendicitis in a patient with heterotaxy syndrome

open access: yesJournal 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

Single cell RNA analysis of the left–right organizer transcriptome reveals potential novel heterotaxy genes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The establishment of left–right patterning in mice occurs at a transient structure called the embryonic node or left–right organizer (LRO). Previous analysis of the LRO has proven challenging due to the small cell number and transient nature of this ...

Heterotaxy

open access: yes, 2019
Abstract This chapter reviews background information about the incidence, risk factors, genetics, family history, recurrence risk, and epidemiology of heterotaxy and disorders of situs, including polysplenia and asplenia. The relationship between heterotaxy and dysfunction of non-motile primary cilia is explained.

Characterization of ultrasound and postnatal pathology in fetuses with heterotaxy syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Background To explore the diagnostic clues and abnormality spectrum of heterotaxy syndrome by prenatal ultrasonography and postnatal verification. Methods The prenatal ultrasonic data of 88 heterotaxy syndrome fetuses were analyzed retrospectively as ...
