Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection: Report of 93 autopsied cases with emphasis on diagnostic and surgical considerations.

TLDR

Total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage in sibs.

TL;DR: Case 1 was delivered by caesarean section, adding to the list of documented sternomastoid tumours occurring in infants so delivered, which seems further evidence that these tumours are not the result of birth injury.

Echocardiographic diagnosis of transposition of the great arteries associated with anomalous pulmonary venous connection

TL;DR: 2 patients with cyanosis and respiratory distress with clinical findings suggesting transposition of the great arteries associated with anomalous pulmonary venous connection are reported, emphasizing the clinical findings, the diagnosis, and the evolution of the association.

Intracardiac surgery in neonates and infants using deep hypothermia with surface cooling and limited cardiopulmonary bypass.

TL;DR: Thirty-three of 37 infants under 10 kg in weight, with correctable lesions, survived this procedure, including 25 aged 8 days to 12 months, and is believed to have wide application in the neonatal and infant group.

TL;DR: The author has shown that early splenic primordia exist at the time of fusion of the A‐V canal cushions and there is a primitive gut mesentery in the left aspect of the dorsal mesogastrium.

Cor triatriatum: Pathologic anatomy and a consideration of morphogenesis based on 13 postmortem cases and a study of normal development of the pulmonary vein and atrial septum in 83 human embryos

TL;DR: The pathologic and embryologic findings strongly suggest that cor triatriatum results from entrapment of the left atrial ostium of the common pulmonary vein by tissue of the right horn of the sinus venosus from which septum primum develops, leading to failure of incorporation of theCommon pulmonary vein into theleft atrium during the fifth embryonic week.

Development of the pulmonary veins; with reference to the embryology of anomalies of pulmonary venous return.

TL;DR: The examination of serial sections of human embryos between 24 and 34 days and the use of plastic reconstructions showed that the common pulmonary vein develops as an outgrowth from the medial superior wall of the left auricle and unites with the angioblastic plexus of the developing lung bud.
