Celiac disease is now a rare diagnosis in the United States. The incidence of celiac disease varies from 1 in 6,500 in Sweden1 to 1 in 890 in Switzerland.2 At the Melbourne Children's Hospital in Australia, Townley3 reported seeing 90 new patients with celiac disease in a four-year interval, with an almost equal incidence of newly diagnosed cases of celiac and cystic fibrosis per year. At the Children's Memorial Hospital in Chicago we now see 20 new cases of cystic fibrosis compared to three new celiac cases per year, despite performing intestinal biopsies in all suspected cases of celiac disease.

AbstractWe have re-investigated an unusual cardiac specimen with juxtaposition of the atrial appendages. The original description dates to 1962, when the autopsy was performed at the Children’s Memorial Hospital in Chicago, now Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago. The heart was subsequently stored in the Farouk S. Idriss Cardiac Registry at the same institution. The specimen shows usual atrial arrangement, but with the morphologically left appendage juxtaposed in a rightward manner, passing behind the heart rather than through the transverse sinus so as to reach its location inferior to the morphologically right appendage. The heart also demonstrated an inter-atrial communication between the cavities of the juxtaposed left appendage and the morphologically right atrium. We provide a detailed description of the morphology, and provide images of this lesion, which to the best of our knowledge has not previously been described.
