Situs anomalies present a diagnostic challenge to radiologists because of the overlapping spectrum of findings commonly seen in asplenia and polysplenia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

In 18 patients (64.3%) there were 2 balanced ventricles; of the other 10 patients, 9 (32.1%) presented right and 1 (3.6%) left ventricular dominance. Ventricular septal defect was present in 12 cases (42.8%). [moh-it.pure.elsevier.com]

In her adulthood, echocardiogram presented left atrial isomerism and dextrocardia, interruption of the inferior vena cava, atrioventricular septal defect (partial presentation), patent arterial duct with aortopulmonary shunt. [rb.org.br]

• Epigastric Pain

  Patients with IDD can have many symptoms such as epigastric pain, gastrointestinal bleeding, outlet obstruction and recurrent pancreatitis, and the typical sign seen on duodenography is called the "wind sock sign".( 10 ) Thus, we could diagnose our patient [synapse.koreamed.org]

  She had been treated for gastritis and duodenal ulcer 3 years previously and she had voluntarily stopped treatment. She constantly had the symptom of dyspepsia, but she had not received medical treatment for this. [synapse.koreamed.org]

The 34 patients were divided into two groups on the basis of their gastrointestinal workup for suspected IRFA. The 28 patients in group A had no upper gastrointestinal (GI) contrast study performed prior to symptoms suggestive of IRFA. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

A minimal workup should include 1 : chest radiograph echocardiogram: to assess for congenital heart disease abdominal ultrasound: to assess intra-abdominal contents (especially spleen) upper GI series: to rule out malrotation Treatment and prognosis Treatment [radiopaedia.org]

Prophylactic surgery for malrotation is not beneficial in asymptomatic patients, and this is well described in existing literature. [8] The diagnostic workup of cases with suspected PCD requires a thorough clinical and physical examination along with [ijabmr.org]

The treatment of Heterotaxy Syndrome may include medications and/or surgery to correct malformations The prognosis of Heterotaxy Syndrome is dictated by the severity of malformations. [dovemed.com]

Prognosis is generally poor in those affected with cardiac abnormalities. [appliedradiology.com]

LAI is usually associated with other cardiac malformations of different complexity, which are the main determinants of prognosis; only a minority of patients have mild disease, are asymptomatic into adult life and are diagnosed incidentally. [em-consulte.com]

Elucidation of the molecular-genetic mechanisms of left-right development will greatly increase our understanding of the etiology of this complex group of congenital heart defects. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Despite extensive diagnostic procedures, the cause of the laterality sequence disruption remains unclear, indicating its multifactorial etiology. [content.iospress.com]

Etiology In patients with heterotaxia, mutations have been identified in several genes ( LEFTY A, ACVR2B, NODAL, CFC1, INVERSINE ). All patients were heterozygous (neither compound heterozygous nor homozygous). [orpha.net]

In studies to determine the cause of these mutations, Nanette Nascone-Yoder and co-workers found that the compound also prevents normal blood-vessel formation and prevents cells from migrating by increasing cellular adhesion. [chemistryviews.org]
