We used a segmental approach to diagnose CHD.

Although some patients had a structurally normal heart (22.7%) or they were associated with simple CHD (17.5%), most patients had complex CHD (59.7%) consisting of a single ventricle (34.6%) or conotruncal anomaly (25.1%) (double-outlet right ventricle [7.6%], corrected transposition of the great arteries [6.2%], complete transposition of the great arteries [5.7%], tetralogy of Fallot [4.7%], etc.). Situs inversus or polysplenia had a higher prevalence of a structurally normal heart or associated with simple CHD, two patent atrioventricular (AV) valves connections, and biventricular AV connections. Situs solitus or asplenia had a higher prevalence of associated complex CHD, common AV valve connection, univentricular AV connection, pulmonary outflow tract obstruction, and anomalous pulmonary venous drainage.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><div>Our study finds that situs inversus is the most common visceroatrial situs in dextrocardia. Although some patients had a structurally normal heart or were associated with simple CHD, most patients have associated complex CHD consisting of a single ventricle or conotruncal anomaly. Dextrocardia is associated with a higher incidence of complex CHD in situs solitus and asplenia groups than in situs inversus and polysplenia groups.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":56095,"journal":{"name":"Pediatrics and Neonatology","volume":"65 6","pages":"Pages 566-570"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140771539","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
