A 14-day-old neonate was referred to our center due to
cyanosis.
Transposition of Great Arteries
Case 149
Fig. 149.1 The great artery, which is connected to the left ventricle, is
divided and is, therefore, the pulmonary artery ( arrow ). The peak gradi-
ent across the pulmonary valve is about 11 mmHg. LV left ventricle

is not divided and is, therefore, the aorta ( arrow ). The peak gradient is
4 mmHg. RV right ventricle, AO aorta

Diagnosis
A diagnosis of the transposition of the great arteries and an
ASD (ostium secundum type) was established.
Comment
The patient was referred for arterial switch.
Lesson
1. In a neonate with cyanosis, the most probable diagnosis is
the transposition of the great arteries. For the fi rst 48 h, if
the ductus arteriosus remains open, cyanosis may be
masked, but after the fi rst 48 h, cyanosis will appear.
Although there is some mixing of blood through the ASD,
the cyanosis progresses despite this shunt.
2. Cyanosis due to the tetralogy of Fallot usually appears
later in life (between 3 and 6 months).
3. One of the therapeutic strategies for the transposition of
the great arteries is to start prostaglandins. In this manner,
the duct will remain open.
4. If there is no ASD, VSD, or patent ductus arteriosus for
the mixing of blood, Rashkind’s procedure is logical. By
this method, interatrial septostomy is performed via a
venous catheter from the umbilical vein.
5. For arterial switch, the pulmonary artery and the aorta are
replaced with each other, and the coronary arteries are
reimplanted.
6. After arterial switch, the coronary arteries should be
reevaluated at 6 years old, and if there is no stenosis, the
patient can even participate in competitive sport.
7. After arterial switch, there may be some degrees of pulmonary stenosis (supravalvular type) or aortic regurgitation. The aortic regurgitation is trivial or mild, and there
is aortic root dilation. Supravalvular aortic stenosis is rare
[ 109 – 111 ].

A 16-year-old pregnant woman was referred for fetal heart
echocardiography. It was her fi rst pregnancy (22 weeks of
gestation). There was no history of congenital heart disease
in the family and no mismatch blood groups.

Diagnosis
The patient was diagnosed with moderate pericardial effusion and mild to moderate tricuspid regurgitation.
Comment
Echocardiography after birth was recommended.
Lesson
1. The ductal arch has less curvature compared to the aortic
arch.
2. In the fetus, there is a normal inversion of the tricuspid
and mitral fl ows.

A 59-year-old woman presented with dyspnea on exertion of
recent duration. She was a known case of situs inversus dextrocardia. Electrocardiography showed superior axis deviation and a negative P wave in leads I and AVL.
All transthoracic echocardiographic images were obtained
from the right precordium, with the patient lying in the right decubitus position. The left ventricular ejection fraction was about
40 %, and there was inferior and anterior wall hypokinesia.

Case 151 Situs Inversus Dextrocardia

493
Diagnosis
The patient was diagnosed to have situs inversus dextrocardia,
moderate left ventricular systolic dysfunction, wall motion
abnormality, and moderate ischemic mitral regurgitation.
Comment
Angiography was recommended for the patient.
Lesson
1. The chamber and vessel relationships are usually normal
in mirror image dextrocardia [ 157 ].
2. The cardiac situs often follows the abdominal situs.
The cardiac situs refers to the status of the atrial
appendages [ 2 ].
3. Moderate left ventricular systolic dysfunction and moderate mitral regurgitation should be differentiated from corrected transposition of the great arteries. In the latter, the
dysfunctional ventricle is the right ventricle, which has a
moderator band, coarse trabeculation, and septal insertion
of the papillary muscles. Also, there is an insuffi cient
atrioventricular valve (tricuspid), which has more apical
attachment compared to the mitral valve [ 114 , 115 , 157 ].

A 24-year-old man presented with newly diagnosed hypertension. Physical examination revealed an early diastolic
murmur (grade II/VI) on the aortic side. Echocardiography
showed mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy, a bicuspid aortic valve with mild aortic insuffi ciency, and no aortic
stenosis.

Case 152 Coarctation of Aortic Valve, Bicuspid Aortic Valve, and Patent Foramen Ovale

497
Diagnosis
The patient was diagnosed to have the coarctation of the
aorta, a bicuspid aortic valve with mild aortic regurgitation,
and a PFO.
Comment
Because the patient had mild aortic insuffi ciency, coarctoplasty was recommended.
Lesson
1. The bicuspid aortic valve and the coarctation of the aorta
are the anomalies that are highly associated [ 2 ].
2. The peak gradient, which is measured via Bernoulli’s
equation, overestimates the true gradient in aortic coarctation because the proximal velocity is not negligible in
this anomaly [ 158 ].
