Anomalies of Abdominal Organs in Polysplenia Syndrome: Multidetector Computed Tomography Findings
Polysplenia syndrome is a rare situs ambiguous anomaly associated with multiple spleens and anomalies of abdominal organs. Because most of the minor anomalies do not cause clinical symptoms, polysplenia syndrome is detected incidentally in the adults ...

Aortic pseudocoarctation associated with polysplenia/heterotaxy syndrome
Polysplenia/heterotaxy syndrome is a rare congenital disorder associated with a wide spectrum of anomalies in various organ systems. Although anomalies of the cardiovascular system are common in this syndrome, the authors report a rare case of ...

ABSTRACT FOXA2 (hepatocyte nuclear factor‐3β, HNF‐3β) encodes a transcriptional activator involved in early embryogenesis, particularly in the patterning and differentiation of midline structures such as the neural tube, foregut, and pituitary gland. Its role in human pathogenesis was first suspected when patients with deletion of chromosome 20p11.2 ...

Heterotaxy syndrome with left atrial isomerism and polysplenia is a unique entity: a case report
A state of a patient with heterotaxy syndrome with polysplenia was indiscriminately diagnosed through visualized estimation (computed tomography and pelviabdominal ultrasound) regardless of the pathological state.

Current Topics of Progressive Cardiac Conduction Disease
Many genes and the protein cause PCCD. Mutation of NaV1.5 or CX40 cause isolated PCCD, but mutation of lamin A/C, emerin, or desmin lead to cardiomyopathy, and PCCD. Mutation of transcription factor NCX2‐5, and Tbx5 associated with atrial septal defect and abnormal development of conduction system.

Non-cardiac issues in patients with heterotaxy syndrome
Management of complex congenital heart disease in patients with Heterotaxy syndrome (HS) has steadily improved. However, there is an insufficient appreciation of various non-cardiac issues that might impact the overall status of these patients.

ABSTRACT Background Several studies show that large language models (LLMs) struggle with phenotype‐driven gene prioritization for rare diseases. These studies typically use Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) terms to prompt foundation models such as GPT and LLaMA to predict candidate genes.

Malrotation and volvulus associated with heterotaxy syndrome
A 2-year-old boy with heterotaxy syndrome with associated polysplenia, ventricular septal defect, and malrotation of gut with volvulus is presented. There was delay in diagnosis due to the unusual plain abdominal radiography findings.
