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

TLDR
Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) is failure of development of the common pulmonary vein, with consequent ersistence and enlargement of embryonic collaterals between the lungs and the systemic veins.

Primary Sutureless Repair for Infants With Mixed Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Drainage

TL;DR: The primary sutureless repair for the patients with mixed type TAPVD appeared to be safe and effective, resulting in no mortality and reintervention, and reasonable early and medium-term physiologic tolerance without need for reinterventions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mixed total anomalous pulmonary venous connection: anatomic variations, surgical approach, techniques, and results.

TL;DR: Patients with a "2+2" pattern of mixed totally anomalous pulmonary venous connection constitute the safe anatomic category for rechanneling, followed by the "3+1" variety, which is followed by patients with category III of mixed TAPVC.

Double outlet right ventricle: clinical spectrum and prognosis.

TL;DR: Patients with double outlet right ventricle can be separated into four distinct groups, each with a high rate of coarctation of the aorta leading to early congestive heart failure, and their overall prognosis is poor.

Partial or Total Direct Pulmonary Venous Drainage to Right Atrium Due to Malposition of Septum Primum: Anatomic and Echocardiographic Findings and Surgical Treatment: A Study Based on 36 Cases

TL;DR: In this article, the displacement of septum primum from the posterior wall of the left atrium to the right atrium was found to be responsible for the anomalous pulmonary venous drainage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Next-generation sequencing identifies novel genes with rare variants in total anomalous pulmonary venous connection.

TL;DR: It is revealed that SNAI1, HMGA2 and VAV2 are the most important genes for TAPVC, which elucidates the possible molecular pathogenesis of this rare congenital birth defect.

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.

Implications of Agenesis of the Spleen on the Pathogenesis of Conotruncus Anomalies in Childhood

Biörn Ivemark
- 01 Nov 1955 - 
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.
