DOI: 10.1002/ppul.25981
Abstract: In heterotaxy syndrome, bronchopulmonary situs usually reflects atrial situs, resulting in either right (RAI) or left atrial isomerism (LAI). This study determines airway anomalies and its implications in patients with heterotaxy. This retrospective study included… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00246-019-02087-2
Abstract: ObjectiveHeterotaxy syndrome is associated with complex cardiac malformations and cardiac conduction system abnormalities. Those with right atrial isomerism (RAI) have dual sinus nodes and dual atrioventricular nodes predisposing them to supraventricular tachycardia (SVT). Those with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00276-020-02586-5
Abstract: Heterotaxy syndrome with polysplenia is an extremely rare congenital disorder caused by a disruption in the embryonic development that results in an abnormal arrangement of the abdominal and thoracic organs. We present the case of… read more here.
