Figure 1 Electrocardiograms recorded when the patient was 8years old (above), and nine days before death when he was 21years old (below). The upright P wave in lead I (above) indicates that the malrotation of the heart is dextroversion rather than dextrocardia. The atrial brillation (below) began 18 months before he died.

Figure 2 Chest roentgenogram. The cardiac apex points to the right.
roentgenogram showed an enlarged and dextrorotated heart. At age 20 months signs of cardiac failure appeared; he was digitalized and remained on digitalis the rest of his life. He was followed closely in the Harriet Lane Home Cardiac Clinic and over the years the heart murmur separated into a harsh, loud, pansystolic com­ponent best heard at the right sternal border, but widely transmitted, and a softer diastolic component heard at the apex. The cardiac apex moved laterally to the right anterior axillary line, and a systolic thrill was palpated widely over the active right anterior chest. Slight cyanosis and clubbing were occasionally described. At cardiac catheterization at age 8 (1953) the pressure in the “right ventricle” was 92/6, and in the femoral artery, 102/64mm. Hg. The pulmonary trunk was not entered. The sys­temic arterial oxygen saturation was 90 per cent. The cardiac output was 3.4 L./min.
Except for slight dyspnea and cyanosis on strenuous exertion, he was asymp­tomatic until about one and a half years before death. He completed high school and one year of college, played and marched with his high school band and worked in the summers. In August, 1964 he noted a rapid pulse and decreased exercise toler­ance and was found to have atrial brillation. This arrhythmia persisted until his death despite conversion attempts with quinidine. Paroxysms of rapid tachycardia occurred during his last year.
He was hospitalized on February 7, 1966, because of increasing fatigability, exer­tional dyspnea, reduced exercise tolerance, insomnia and nervousness. The liver was enlarged, the pretibial regions edematous, the digits moderately clubbed and the nail beds quite cyanotic. The hematocrit was 63 per cent; the electrocardiogram (Figure 1) showed atrial brillation, and ventricular hypertrophy, and the chest roentgenogram (Figure 2) showed marked cardiomegaly, dextrocardia, enlarged pulmonary vessels, and a narrowed “vascular pedicle.” The hematocrit was lowered to 59 per cent by the removal of 500 ml. of blood. On February15, he developed severe pain in his right eye, and three hours later ventricular brillation appeared and he died.

Figure 3 Diagram of the heart. The right (R.A.) and left atria (L.A.), vena cavae (S.V.C. and I.V.C.) and pulmonary veins (P.V.) are normally situated. The right sided atrioventricular valve is bicuspid, and the left sided one is tricuspid. The large ven­tricular cavity, with its apex pointing to the right (dextroversion), is for practical pur­poses a single ventricle with remnants of ventricular septum (below the ventricular septal defect) serving as the point of separation between right and left halves of the common ventricle. The interior lining of the right sided ventricle is smooth and is typical of that of a normal left ventricle (L.V.). The wall of the left sided ventricle is thicker, its interior lining is coarser, and it contains an infundibulum. The latter two features are characteristic of an anatomic right ventricle (R.V.). Both pulmonary trunk (P.T.) and aorta (Ao.) arise from the anatomic right ventricle, and both pul­monic and aortic valves are separated from the A-V valves and from one another by infundibulum. Since both great arteries arise from the anatomic right ventricle, the only outlet for blood from the anatomic left ventricle is via the huge ventricular septal defect (V.S.D.). Both pulmonic and aortic valves are on the same horizontal plane, and these arteries ascend parallel to one another.
The cardiac ndings at autopsy (#34437) are summarized in Figure 3, and described in detail in Figures4 to 6. He had corrected transposition of the great vessels, a huge ventricular septal defect (functionally single ventricle), origin of both great vessels from the anatomic right ventricle (double outlet right ventricle), and dextroversion.
The pulmonary arteries and veins were dilated. Microscopically, the pulmonary arteries showed medial hypertrophy and focal narrowing of the lumens by brous intimal proliferation.
COMMENTS
Confusion may arise when the more or less contradictory terms “corrected trans­position of the great arteries,” “origin of both great vessels from the right ventricle”

Figure 4 Various views of the heart. Upper left: Radiograph of the heart specimen. Alarge deposit of calcium is present in the left atrium (L.A.), and it extends down one portion of the left A-V valve to the base of a papillary muscle of the anatomic right ventricle (R.V.). Before this radiograph was taken pins (arrows) were placed lat­erally (right to left) across the superior margins of each of the semilunar valves. On this radiograph the two pins arc virtually superimposed on one another, indicating that one valve lies directly behind the other and that each is on the same horizontal plane. The latter is a characteristic feature of the entity “origin of both great vessels from the right ventricle.” (16) R.A.=right atrium. L.V.=anatomic left ventricle. Lower left: Anterior view of the heart. The apex points to the right. The coronary arteries have a mirror image of normal: the anterior descending (A.D.) branch arises from the right circumex (R.C.) coronary artery. The left coronary artery is not shown. The aorta (Ao.) is anterior to the pulmonary trunk (P.T.). Abbreviations as in upper left; L.A.A.= left atrial appendage. Upper right: The ventricular cavity is opened along its entire inferior (caudal) border. From this view the orices of both A-V valves are seen and each of these valves is continuous with one another across the dashed line which represents the circumference of the huge ventricular septal defect. The rem­nant of the ventricular septum (V.S.) is shown. Both aorta (A.) and pulmonary trunk (P.) arise from the anatomic right ventricle. Lower right: The anterior half of the heart has now been removed. The interior lining of both anatomic left ventricle (L.V.) and anatomic right ventricle (R.V.) are well seen. The arrows designate the large commu­nication (V.S.D.) between the two ventricles.

and “common ventricle” are employed to describe the same heart. Each term is applicable, however, in the case of the patient presented herein. The aorta arose ante­rior to the pulmonary trunk (transposition of the great vessels), and the ventricles, A-V valves, and coronary arteries were inverted in a mirror image of normal (inver­sion). The anatomic left (“venous”) ventricle was located on the right side of the heart and the anatomic right (“arterial”) ventricle was located on the left side of the heart. In contrast to the typical “corrected transposition” heart, however, the pulmonary trunk was not attached to the venous ventricle, but both great arteries arose from the anatomic right ventricle (double outlet right ventricle), and neither semilunar valve was continuous with an A-V valve. The only outlet for blood from the anatomic left ventricle was through the huge ventricular septal defect. Since only a remnant of a ventricular septum was present, it appears best to consider this defect as absent ventricular septum or single ventricle.
The patient described above is very similar to the 47-year-old man reported by Rawson and Doerner.

Their patient also had “corrected transposition,” “origin of both great vessels from the anatomic right ventricle,” “common ventricle,” “dextro­version,” but in addition had valvular pulmonic stenosis. Most patients with virtu­ally absent ventricular septa die during the rst few months or years of life, and survival to adulthood is rare. It is well recognized that obstruction to pulmonary blood ow (by valvular or subvalvular pulmonic stenosis) increases the length of survival of patients with common ventricle. It is remarkable that the present patient survived so long since he also had a common ventricle, but no obstruction of ow of blood to the lungs.
SUMMARY
The clinical and pathologic ndings are described in a 21-year-old man who died of a complex cardiac malformation consisting of “corrected transposition,” “ori­gin of both great vessels from the anatomic right ventricle,” single ventricle, and dextroversion.

Case 79 Aneurysmal Dilatation of the Coronary Arteries in Cyanotic Congenital Cardiac Disease*
Report of a Forty Year Old Patient with the Taussig-Bing Complex
Joseph K. Perloff, MD, Charles W. Urschell, MD, William C. Roberts, MD, and Walter H. Caulfield, Jr., MD
Washington, D. C.
Clinical, hemodynamic, angiocardiographic and autopsy observations are described in a forty year old woman with right ventricular origin of the aorta and biventricular origin of the pulmonary trunk. She lived longer than any previously described patient with this congenital malformation. At angiography and at autopsy the extramural coronary arteries were found to be aneurysmally dilated and tortuous. Coronary arterial ectasia has been described once before in patients with cyanotic congenital cardiac disease, but the remarkable degree of dilatation and tortuosity found in our patient has not been recorded.
MARKED dilatation and tortuosity of the coronary arteries in patients with cya-
notic congenital heart disease has been commented upon only once before.

This report describes the clinical, hemodynamic, angiographic and necropsy ndings in a forty year old cyanotic woman in whom the aorta arose entirely from the right ventricle, whereas the pulmonary trunk arose from both ventricles. She survived longer than any known patient with this malformation. In addition, she exhibited a degree of coronary arterial dilatation and tortuosity that is without precedent in the literature.
CASE REPORT
The patient, a white housewife, was rst evaluated by us when she was thirty­eight years of age. She was the product of a normal pregnancy and apparently had been cyanotic from birth. Effort dyspnea, fatigue and orthopnea had been present from childhood. These symptoms lessened in the teens; she ultimately married and was able to do light housework. Mild exertional chest pain began at about twenty years of age and recurred intermittently thereafter. Between ages thirty­three and thirty-eight years, hemoptysis occurred three times. Two episodes were sudden and severe, each lasting a day. Increased fatigability began at age thirty­six, and there was a 15 pound weight loss between the ages of thirty-six and thirty­eight years.

When initially seen the patient complained of breathlessness, chest pain and fatigue but she was still able to do much of her shopping and was moderately active. On examination, she was a thin, small woman with distinct cyanosis and clubbing of the ngers but with much less cyanosis and little or no clubbing of the toes. The arterial pulses were normal, and the blood pressure was similar in the arms and legs (92/65mm. Hg). The jugular venous pulse was normal in height and contour. The lungs were clear. Aright ventricular impulse was readily appreciated, and a moder­ate left ventricular impulse was identied near the mid-clavicular line. The sound of pulmonary valve closure was palpable in the second left interspace. Auscultatory signs included a normal rst heart sound, a pulmonic ejection sound, a grade 3/6 mid-systolic murmur maximal in the second and third left interspaces, a loud, single second sound in the second left interspace, and a soft, inconstant mid-diastolic mur­mur at the site of the left ventricular impulse. The liver was not enlarged and there was no edema.
The hematocrit was 60 per cent. On chest roentgenogram (Figure 1) the lung elds were plethoric, especially the middle and inner thirds. The pulmonary trunk was dilated. The atria were normal in size, and the right and left ventricles were only slightly enlarged. The electrocardiogram (Figure 2) showed a P-R interval of
0.20 second with P waves of right atrial and perhaps biatrial hypertrophy. Depolarization appeared to be clockwise with a frontal plane QRS axis directed inferiorly and to the right. Precordial leads conrmed the presence of right ventricular hypertrophy with tall R waves in lead V trophy was suggested by the relatively high R waves in leads V
and deep S waves in leads V5 and V6. Coexisting left ventricular hyper-

of volume overload were not present.
Cardiac catheterization data are summarized in Table 1. A right saphenous venous catheter entered the right atrium, right ventricle and pulmonary artery in normal fashion. The descending aorta was easily entered via a patent ductus arterio­sus. The atrial septum was crossed through a patent foramen ovale. Retrograde fem­oral arterial catheterization showed that the right ventricle communicated directly with the aorta which was in a relatively rightward position. Peak systolic pressures were identical in right ventricle, pulmonary trunk and aorta. The concentration of inhaled krypton

was greater in the pulmonary trunk than in the brachial artery
Figure 1 Anteroposterior, right oblique and left oblique chest roentgenograms. Pulmonary blood ow is increased, especially in the middle and inner thirds of the lung elds (anteroposterior projection). The position of the great vessels appears normal. The pulmonary trunk is moderately enlarged. The cardiac dimensions are relatively unimpressive.

(index 178 per cent). The oxygen content of pulmonary arterial blood was 22.4 vol­umes per cent and of aortic root blood 19.7 volumes per cent. Indocyanine green dye dilution curves showed the following patterns. With injection into the right atrium and right ventricle, the appearance time was ve seconds, the primary curves large and the early recirculation peaks (left to right shunt) small. With injection into the left atrium, the appearance time was ve and a half seconds, the primary curve relatively lower and the early recirculation peak (left to right shunt) larger. Right ventricular angiocardiograms (Figure 3) showed opacication of both great arter­ies. The aorta arose entirely from the right ventricle and the dilated pulmonary trunk arose from both ventricles (biventricular in origin). The aortic root was in a relatively anterior position and the aortic and pulmonary valves were in the same horizontal plane. The patent ductus arteriosus was readily identied. Tortuous coro­nary arteries were indistinctly seen on the surface of the heart following the right ventricular angiocardiogram (Figure 3), but were strikingly evident following injec­tion of contrast material into the aortic root (Figure 4). Both coronary arteries were remarkably dilated and tortuous. In addition, the lateral projection showed that the rst portion of the aortic root rose vertically and the plane of the aortic valve was horizontal (Figure 4).
Following these studies the patient was not seen again for two years. She was then deeply cyanosed, dyspneic and semistuporous, and she died within twenty­four hours.
At necropsy the heart weighed 350 gm. The principal morphologic features are described in detail in Figures5 through 9. In summary, the aorta arose solely from the right ventricle, and the pulmonary trunk arose from both ventricles but pre­dominantly from the left (Figure 5). The pulmonary trunk was greatly dilated and
