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

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 ...

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.

CHD associated with syndromic diagnoses: peri-operative risk factors and early outcomes [PDF]
CHD is frequently associated with a genetic syndrome. These syndromes often present specific cardiovascular and non-cardiovascular co-morbidities that confer significant peri-operative risks affecting multiple organ systems.

Palliation of a Heterotaxy Single Ventricle Neonate with Pulmonary Atresia and Obstructed TAPVR
Patients born with obstructed total anomalous pulmonary venous return have a high risk of morbidity and mortality in the neonatal period, which only increases when combined with single ventricle physiology and non-cardiac congenital anomalies such as ...
