  2. Congenital heart defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congenital_heart_defect

    A congenital heart defect (CHD), also known as a congenital heart anomaly, congenital cardiovascular malformation, and congenital heart disease, is a defect in the structure of the heart or great vessels that is present at birth. [7] A congenital heart defect is classed as a cardiovascular disease. [10]

  3. Shone's syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shone's_syndrome

    Shone's syndrome is a rare congenital heart defect described by Shone in 1963. In the complete form, four left-sided defects are present: [1] Supravalvular mitral membrane (SVMM) Parachute mitral valve; Subaortic stenosis (membranous or muscular) Coarctation of the aorta

  4. Eisenmenger syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eisenmenger_syndrome

    Eisenmenger syndrome or Eisenmenger's syndrome is defined as the process in which a long-standing left-to-right cardiac shunt caused by a congenital heart defect (typically by a ventricular septal defect, atrial septal defect, or less commonly, patent ductus arteriosus) causes pulmonary hypertension [1] [2] and eventual reversal of the shunt into a cyanotic right-to-left shunt.

    [4] [12] It is the most common complex congenital heart defect, accounting for about 10 percent of cases. [13] [14] It was initially described in 1671 by Niels Steensen. [1] [15] A further description was published in 1888 by the French physician Étienne-Louis Arthur Fallot, after whom it is named.

    Normal heart anatomy compared to d-TGA Echocardiography of a complex transposition with a ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis. Abbreviations: LV and RV=left and right ventricle, PT=pulmonary trunk, VSD=ventricular septal defect, PS=pulmonary stenosis. Echocardiogram in transposition of the great arteries.

  7. Ebstein's anomaly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebstein's_anomaly

    Ebstein's anomaly is a congenital heart defect in which the septal and posterior leaflets of the tricuspid valve are displaced downwards towards the apex of the right ventricle of the heart. [1] EA has great anatomical heterogeneity that generates a wide spectrum of clinical features at presentation and is complicated by the fact that the ...

    When no other heart defects are present it is called 'simple' d-TGA; when other defects are present it is called 'complex' d-TGA. [citation needed] Although it may seem counterintuitive, complex d-TGA presents better chance of survival and less developmental risks than simple d-TGA, as well as usually requiring fewer invasive palliative procedures.

  9. Cyanotic heart defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanotic_heart_defect

    A cyanotic heart defect is any congenital heart defect (CHD) that occurs due to deoxygenated blood bypassing the lungs and entering the systemic circulation, or a mixture of oxygenated and unoxygenated blood entering the systemic circulation.
