Atrioventricular canal defect and genetic syndromes: the unifying role of sonic hedgehog [PDF]
The atrioventricular canal defect (AVCD) is a congenital heart defect (CHD) frequently associated with extracardiac anomalies (75%). Previous observations from a personal series of patients with AVCD and "polydactyly syndromes" showed that the distinct ...

Clinical heterogeneity of NADSYN1‐associated VCRL syndrome
Clinicians should suspect NAD deficiency disorder when a patient presents with congenital malformations, especially when vertebral, cardiac, renal, or limb defects are present. We expanded NAD deficiency disorder spectrum with the presentation of three cases from two unrelated families, with high inter‐ and intra‐familial variability.

Fetal heterotaxy with tricuspid atresia, pulmonary atresia, and isomerism of the right atrial appendages at 22 weeks. [PDF]
We report the accurate prenatal diagnosis at 22 weeks gestation of right atrial isomerism in association with tricuspid atresia. Several distinctive sonographic features of isomerism of the right atrial appendages were present in this fetus: complex ...

Congenital Portosystemic Shunt Presenting As Hyperammonemia Following Fontan Operation
The Fontan operation allows survival for children with single ventricle congenital heart disease. In the acute postoperative period, perioperative insults and drastic changes in vascular pressures can potentially cause ischemic liver injury. We present a 3‐year‐old female with congenital heart disease presenting post‐Fontan procedure complicated by ...

A single heterozygous mutation in the TTC21B gene may cause atypical NPHP12, which had a relatively later onset and milder clinical symptoms without developmental abnormalities. Abstract Background Nephronophthisis type 12 (NPHP 12) is a rare cilia‐related cystic kidney disease, caused by TTC21B mutation, mainly involving the kidneys, which generally ...

NPHP4 Variants Are Associated With Pleiotropic Heart Malformations [PDF]
Rationale: Congenital heart malformations are a major cause of morbidity and mortality, especially in young children. Failure to establish normal left-right (L-R) asymmetry often results in cardiovascular malformations and other laterality defects of ...
