Crisis-Cross Heart 1례

Abstract

The essence of the criss-cross heart is rotation of the ventricular mass around its long axis. It results in two ventricles and great arteries-achieving unexpected relationships. We report a 2 day-old boy with superoinferior ventricles, criss-cross atrioventricular relationships pulmonary atresia, venric니lar septal defect, transposition of the great arteries. The diagnosis was made by echocardiographic examination, cardiac catheterization and angiocardiography. Modified Blalock-Taussig shunt was performed to alleviate hypoxia. Following the shunt operation, the clinical condition of the patient improved.
