Prenatal diagnosis of a rare isolated thoracic-type ectopia cordis with complete form: a case report

Journal of Ultrasound, 2020
Ectopia cordis (EC) is a rare malformation that occurs as an isolated lesion or as part of the pentalogy of Cantrell which is characterized by midline closure defects. This was first described by Haller et al. in 1706. EC is seen with a frequency of 5.5-7.9 per 1 million births.

Single-stage repair of thoracic ectopia cordis

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1995
Thoracic ectopia cordis is a rare congenital defect most often seen in association with sternal and congenital heart defects. Surgical correction of these defects is complex and generally requires a staged closure including (1) coverage of the "naked heart," (2) placement of the heart into the thoracic cavity, and (3) sternal or thoracic reconstruction.

Bovine thoracic Ectopia cordis in southeastern Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil

Cuadernos de Educación y Desarrollo, 2023
This study describes and illustrates a case of thoracic ectopia cordis (EC) in a cross-bred calf in the southeastern region of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. A cow suffering from dystocia due to fetal static gave birth to a calf with the heart and pericardial sac outside the thoracic cavity and respiratory distress.

Complete thoracic ectopia cordis with double-outlet right ventricle: Neonatal repair

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1992
A case of total thoracic ectopia cordis with double-outlet right ventricle and ventricular septal defect is presented. Prenatal diagnosis allowed single-stage correction immediately after birth. This approach proved to be technically feasible. Death occurred on the twelfth postoperative day owing to sepsis unrelated to the repair.

A case of thoracic ectopia cordis

2023
OBJECTIVE: Ectopia cordis (EC) is a rare malformation (5-8 per million live births) characterized by an abnormal position of the heart. Based on the anatomical position it can be classified into cervical (3%), cervico-thoracic (<1%), thoracic (60%), abdominal (30%), and thoracoabdominal (7%). In the most common form the heart is partially or totally

[Thoracic ectopia cordis with tetralogy of fallot].

La Tunisie medicale, 2004
Ectopia cordis; very rare congenital malformation, characterized by an evisceration of the heart through a parietal defect. The thoracic localization is most frequent. We report the case of a full term baby girl without follow-up of the pregnancy, presenting a beating mass in thoracic position, expansive to the effort, covered by a translucent membrane
