A malformation of the heart and great vessels, in which the aorta and the pulmonary trunk originated from the right ventricle, has been reported in a 1 1/2 year-old horse. It is suggested that the oxygenated blood from the left ventricle was ejected through a large septal defect into the right ventricle where partial mixture of the blood took place. The function of the right ventricle was to pump the blood into the aorta and the pulmonary trunk. The muscular ridge, which was interposed between the aorta and the pulmonary trunk, might have directed a portion of the predominately oxygenated blood into the aorta and a portion of the predominately venous blood into the pulmonary trunk.

Enlargement of the bulboventricular foramen (BVF) in double-inlet left ventricle or the ventricular septal defect (VSD) in tricuspid atresia with transposition of the great arteries is one approach for prevention or treatment of systemic ventricular outflow obstruction. Most often, BVF/VSD restriction is bypassed preemptively or addressed directly at the time of Glenn/Fontan procedures as part of staged univentricular palliation. We describe a patient who underwent enlargement of a restrictive VSD during Fontan completion and subsequently presented with an asymptomatic pseudoaneurysm of the right ventricle at the ventriculotomy site.

AbstractDouble outlet left ventricle is an extremely rare anomaly. Until recently, the diagnosis was usually established by angiography or at postmortem. There are only a few reports describing the echocar-diographic findings in this lesion, and as far as we know, no report showing the anatomy as well as the velocity and pattern of flow by color Doppler echocardiography. The patient reported here underwent surgery at the age of four years, when an aortic homograft was placed between the right ventricle and the pulmonary trunk. This biventricular repair had to be changed into a Fontan-type procedure, 15 years later since the hypoplastic right ventricle did not grow adequately.

Abstract A 10-day-old neonate with pulmonary consolidation was referred for echocardiography to rule out CHD. At first glance, the morphology appeared to be a bipartite right ventricle with normal tricuspid and pulmonary valves. In-depth analysis, however, of the images showed a double-chambered right ventricle, in which the inlet and outlet portions of the right ventricle were isolated from the apical component of the right ventricle, which itself communicated with the left ventricle through a ventricular septal defect. There was a normal pulmonary valve and tricuspid annulus.

AbstractThe case of a 27-year-old male with Ebstein's malformation combined with a ventricular septal defect is reported. On its right ventricular side the defect was covered by the dysplastic septal tricuspid leaflet, creating a small chamber in continuity with the left ventricle, but without shunt into the remaining components of the right ventricle. The ventricular septal defect and a patent oval foramen were closed operatively after a cerebral embolic event to eliminate probable sources of thromboemboli preventing the inherent risks of life-long anticoagulation for a young patient. Intraoperative morphology confirmed the preoperative findings.

The article describes the features of venous blood outflow from the heart in the Baikal seal. The objects for the study were corrosion preparations of 11 hearts of the Baikal seal aged from 1 month to 10 years. In our research we used the methods of preparation, filling of vessels with the use of "Kudo" mounting foam, photographing and sketching the branching of vessels. It was established that in the Baikal seal, the outflow of venous blood occurs through the prominent coronary sinus and the large, intermediate, oblique vein of the left atrium, the middle and right heart veins that flow into it. In 18.2% of hearts, a coronary valve was found at the border of the great heart vein and the coronary sinus. The great heart vein begins above the apices of the heart and is formed from the fusing of the 6-11 collateral veins of the wall of the right ventricle, the venous pericardial plexus, and 9-16 branches on the side of the left ventricle. The most variable is the intermediate (marginal) branch, which in most cases has only one branch, however, in 18.2% of cases there are two ones or in 9.1% of cases, there are intermediate branches with a common trunk. The middle vein of the heart is located in the sub-sinus sulcus and anastomoses with the branch of the great vein of the heart, in 9.1% of cases, the valve of the coronary sinus was found at the border with the coronary sinus. The right veins of the heart have 5-6 branches, among which the marginal ones are the most prominent. 27.3% of Baikal seals have a venous sinus formed from the fusion of the middle and right coronary veins, as well as a duct connecting the large cardiac vein with this sinus.
