Four-leaflet pulmonary valve in the setting of hypoplastic left heart syndrome Open
The association of hypoplastic left heart syndrome with pulmonary valvular abnormalities such as dysplasia, stenosis, or insufficiency is rare and not well defined in the literature. We report a rare case of hypoplastic left heart syndrome…

The anatomy of atrial conduction: A review of anatomic landmarks integrated with computed tomographic virtual dissection to provide a road map for right atrial pacing Open
Pacing of the atrial chambers has recently gained increased attention. However, major barriers relate to the understanding of the underlying anatomy relative to fluoroscopic positioning of pacing leads and the reliance on using the morphol…

Reaching consensus as to how knowledge of development underscores our understanding of deficient ventricular septation Open
Some of us recently discussed the problems existing in describing the channels that permit interventricular shunting. We offered suggestions for improvement, particularly when assessing the channel that is found when both arterial trunks a…

The Anatomy of the Atrioventricular Node Open
The anatomical arrangement of the atrioventricular node has been likened to a riddle wrapped up in an enigma. There are several reasons for this alleged mystery, not least the marked variability in structure between different species. Lack…

Enhancing management of double outlet right ventricle when the interventricular communication is remote from the arterial roots through three-dimensional printing Open
These cases underscore 3D printing's role in improving precision, reducing complications, and potentially lowering costs in managing complex congenital heart disease.

The pulmonary valve in tetralogy of Fallot: insights from a necroscopy series Open
Background: Tetralogy of Fallot is the most common cyanotic congenital malformation of the heart. The right ventricular outflow tract is of great interest in this setting, but most of the focus on this feature has been on the size of the s…

Ethical Use of Cadaveric Images in Anatomical Textbooks, Atlases, and Journals: A Consensus Response From Authors and Editors Open
Nowadays, consent to use donor bodies for medical education and research is obtained from the body donors and their families before the donation. Recently, the International Federation of Associations of Anatomists (IFAA) published guideli…

Relating normal human cardiac development to the anatomical findings in the congenitally malformed heart Open
A proper appreciation of cardiac development can now provide the necessary background to understand the anatomical findings in the congenitally malformed heart. We recently presented an account of human cardiac development based on reconst…

Common arterial trunk with pulmonary atresia Open
We report two congenitally malformed hearts found at autopsy to have common arterial trunk and pulmonary atresia. Both exhibited usual atrial arrangement, along with concordant atrioventricular connections. In one case, the common arterial…
