Duplication of the left atrioventricular valve in double inlet left ventricle: a triple inlet ventricle? 1984

L M Gerlis, and R H Anderson, and D F Dickinson

A heart is described with double inlet left ventricle, rudimentary right ventricle and ventriculo-arterio discordance. The lesion was complicated by a malformation of the left atrioventricular valve. The valve was divided into two distinct orifices. The major orifice connected to the morphologically left ventricle along with the right atrioventricular valve. The minor orifice opened predominantly into the rudimentary right ventricle but in part to the dominant left ventricle. The problems such a lesion produces in terms of nomenclature are discussed with regard to sequential segmental analysis.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007223 Infant A child between 1 and 23 months of age. Infants
D008297 Male Males
D004374 Ductus Arteriosus, Patent A congenital heart defect characterized by the persistent opening of fetal DUCTUS ARTERIOSUS that connects the PULMONARY ARTERY to the descending aorta (AORTA, DESCENDING) allowing unoxygenated blood to bypass the lung and flow to the PLACENTA. Normally, the ductus is closed shortly after birth. Patent Ductus Arteriosus Familial,Patency of the Ductus Arteriosus,Patent Ductus Arteriosus
D006345 Heart Septal Defects, Ventricular Developmental abnormalities in any portion of the VENTRICULAR SEPTUM resulting in abnormal communications between the two lower chambers of the heart. Classification of ventricular septal defects is based on location of the communication, such as perimembranous, inlet, outlet (infundibular), central muscular, marginal muscular, or apical muscular defect. Ventricular Septal Defects,Intraventricular Septal Defects,Ventricular Septal Defect,Defect, Intraventricular Septal,Defect, Ventricular Septal,Defects, Intraventricular Septal,Intraventricular Septal Defect,Septal Defect, Intraventricular,Septal Defect, Ventricular,Septal Defects, Intraventricular,Septal Defects, Ventricular
D006352 Heart Ventricles The lower right and left chambers of the heart. The right ventricle pumps venous BLOOD into the LUNGS and the left ventricle pumps oxygenated blood into the systemic arterial circulation.
