Heterotaxy polysplenia syndrome in an adult female with complete endocardial cushion defect
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 ...

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.

CFAP45, a heterotaxy and congenital heart disease gene, affects cilia stability
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common and lethal birth defect, affecting 1.3 million individuals worldwide. During early embryogenesis, errors in Left-Right (LR) patterning called Heterotaxy (Htx) can lead to severe CHD.
