Abstract Aims: Evidence is emerging that, in the setting of isomerism, the atrial and bronchial arrangement are not always concordant, nor are these patterns always harmonious with the arrangement of the abdominal organs. We aimed to evaluate the concordance between these features in a cohort of patients with cardiac malformations in the setting of known isomerism, seeking to determine whether it was feasible to assess complexity on this basis, in this regard taking note of the potential value of bronchial as opposed to appendage morphology. Methods and Results: We studied 78 patients known to have isomerism of the… More >
