Valvar aortico-ventricular tunnel: an insight into the development of the great arteries.
TLDR
A unique case of a valvar aorto-left ventricular tunnel in a neonate is presented, in belief that these findings may shed some light on the developmental origins of this lesion.Abstract:
Aorto-left ventricular tunnel is a rare congenital heart lesion, with an incidence of <0.1% of all CHD. We present a unique case of a valvar aorto-left ventricular tunnel in a neonate, in belief that our findings may shed some light on the developmental origins of this lesion.read more

TL;DR: In this article, a synthesis of 95 published investigations of the exceedingly rare tunnels that can exist between the aortic root and the left or right ventricles is presented, from the 220 suitable cases included in the synthesis.

Left aorto-ventricular tunnel: A differential diagnosis to aortic regurgitation.
TL;DR: This is the first case described in South East Asia who is asymptomatic, apart from a murmur, and her long journey to this final diagnosis illustrates the need to "chase shadows" on echoes, to come to a proper conclusion for the patient.

Aortico-Left Ventricular Tunnel
TL;DR: An entity, which has not previously been diagnosed during life, to the authors' knowledge, is herein named aortico-left ventricular tunnel, in which an abnormal channel begins in the ascending aorta, bypasses the aortic valve, and leads through the ventricular septum into the left ventricular cavity.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that myocardial regression is most pronounced on the dextroposterior side and continues until after birth, as revealed by the disappearance of the myocardia cuff surrounding the coronary roots and semilunar sinuses and by the establishment of fibrous continuity between mitral and aortic semileunar valves.

TL;DR: Objective evidence of the mechanisms of closure of an AP foramen that exists distally between the lumens of the developing intrapericardial arterial trunks is provided for the first time.

TL;DR: Aortico-left ventricular tunnel is a rare cardiac malformation with a good post-operative long-term outcome, and catheterization should be reserved for patients with unclear non-invasive findings or transcatheter closure.

TL;DR: This series shows that aortico-left ventricular tunnel covers an anatomic spectrum of lesions, and cases diagnosed in utero by Doppler echocardiography are characterized by severe ventricular dysfunction, associated aortic valve lesions and poor outcome.
