Abstract
|
|
|
Double outlet right ventricle is a rare congenital anomaly of the heart. This malformation represents a further rotation of the aorta than that which occurs in the tetralogy of Fallot. Witham in 1957 reported the clinical and pathological findings of four cases of this anomaly and named the condition to be double outlet right ventricle. He discussed this anomaly as a partial transposition of great vessels.
Recently we had a chance to examine a stillborn infant who was born from a 36 years old multiparous woman of preeclamptic condition. At autopsy the aorta is so far dextroposed that it arises entirely from the right ventricle. The pulmonary artery occupies its normal position and lies anterior to the aorta. (Vide figures). Aorta is not hypoplastic. A relatively large ventricular septal defect was found in the membraneous portion of ventricular septum.
Authors presume this case is the first autopsy-proven case of double outlet right ventircle published in Korean literature.
