Congenital Heart Defects A congenital heart defect is a problem with the structure of the heart. It is present at birth. Congenital heart defects are the most common type of birth defect. The defects can involve the walls of the heart, the valves of the heart, and the arteries and veins near the heart. They can disrupt the normal flow of blood through the heart.

Classic Imaging Signs of Congenital Cardiovascular Abnormalities Transposition of the great arteries, the most common cyanotic congenital heart lesion found in neonates, accounts for 5%–7% of congenital cardiac malformations. It is most common in infants of diabetic mothers.

Congenital Heart Disease in Children with Down Syndrome Congenital Heart Disease in Children with Down Syndrome. Children with Down syndrome are at a much higher risk for congenital heart disease. As a comparison: the incidence of congenital heart disease in the general population is 0.8 percent. The incidence of congenital heart disease in children with Down syndrome is between 40-60 percent. Some heart defects can be left alone with careful monitoring while others require surgery to correct the problem. The following types of heart defects in children with Down syndrome are discussed below.

Cardiac Tumors Cardiac tumors may be primary (benign or malignant) or metastatic (malignant). Myxoma, a benign primary tumor, is the most common type. Cardiac tumors may occur in any cardiac tissue. They can cause valvular or inflow-outflow tract obstruction, thromboembolism, arrhythmias, or pericardial disorders.

Congenital Heart Disease in the Adult Intracardiac shunts are the most common form of congenital heart lesion and are often diagnosed in otherwise healthy adults. They are associated with increased pulmonary blood flow, which can lead to right heart chamber enlargement and arrhythmias, and with pulmonary hypertension.

Cardiac myxoma Cardiac myxoma - Causes. 1  Myxomas are the most common type of primary heart tumor. [2] 2  The tumor is derived from multipotential mesenchymal cells and may cause a ball valve-type obstruction. 3  About 75% of myxomas occur in the left atrium of the heart, usually beginning in the wall that divides the two upper chambers of the heart.

Cameron Lesions: Unusual Cause of Gastrointestinal Bleeding and Anemia Diagnosis. Clinical diagnosis of hiatal hernia and Cameron lesions is often difficult since they often present with GERD symptoms and anemia. Hiatal hernias are very common endoscopic findings. They are also found on chest X-rays as a large structure in the posterior mediastinum.

Atrial septal defect The ostium secundum atrial septal defect is the most common type of atrial septal defect, and comprises 6-10% of all congenital heart diseases. The secundum atrial septal defect usually arises from an enlarged foramen ovale, inadequate growth of the septum secundum, or excessive absorption of the septum primum.eferences. Atrial septal defects are a group of congenital heart diseases that enables communication between atria of the heart due to a deficiency in the interatrial septum. The inter-atrial septum is the tissue that separates the right and left atria from each other.

What is a congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM)? What is a congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM)? A congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) is a benign lung lesion appearing as a cyst or lump in the chest that can vary in size. It is the most common type of fetal lung lesion. A large cyst is called a macrocystic lesion, and small cyst is called microcystic.

Keep Your Eyes on the Ribs: The Spectrum of Normal Variants and Diseases That Involve the Ribs True primary neoplasms of the ribs are rare. Chondroid lesions are the most common primary tumors and nearly always arise at or near the anterior end of the rib (11, 12). Therefore, lesions at the costochondral junction, especially if calcified, are suggestive of a chondroid origin.

- The most frequent locations were the joint surface of the patella (36%) and the medial femoral condyle (34%). Lesions classified as grade II according to Outerbridge were the most frequent type, occurring in 42% of the cases. The type of lesion most commonly associated with chondral lesions was tearing of the medial meniscus, in 42%, followed by lesions of the anterior cruciate ligament, in 36%.

Congenital Heart Defects Congenital heart defects are problems with the heart's structure that are present at birth. Congenital heart defects change the normal flow of blood through the heart. Congenital heart defects are the most common type of birth defect, affecting 8 out of every 1,000 newborns. Each year, more than 35,000 babies in the United States are born with congenital heart defects.

Some congenital anomalies can be prevented.

From Wikipedia: Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is a congenital heart defect which is classically understood to involve four anatomical abnormalities (although only three of them are always present). It is the most common cyanotic heart defect, representing 55-70%, and the most common cause of blue baby syndrome..

Congenital heart disease It is the most common type of birth defect. Congenital heart disease causes more deaths in the first year of life than any other birth defects. Congenital heart disease is often divided into two types: cyanotic (blue skin color caused by a lack of oxygen) and non-cyanotic.The following lists cover the most common congenital heart diseases: Cyanotic: 1  Ebstein's anomaly.2  Hypoplastic left heart.ongenital heart disease is often divided into two types: cyanotic (blue skin color caused by a lack of oxygen) and non-cyanotic.

- At Mayo Clinic, we take the time to listen, to find answers and to provide you the best care. Congenital heart disease (congenital heart defect) is an abnormality in your heart's structure that you're born with. Although congenital heart disease is often considered a childhood condition, advances in surgical treatment mean most babies who once died of congenital heart disease survive well into adulthood. While medical advances have improved, many adults with congenital heart disease may not be getting proper follow-up care.

- A heart disease that develops after birth is described as an acquired heart disease. Children are less likely than adults to develop an acquired heart condition. Among the most common heart conditions acquired during childhood are rheumatic heart disease and Kawasaki disease. Children who have been diagnosed with and treated for congenital heart defects may be at increased risk of acquiring endocarditis and cardiomyopathy. And some children and young adults develop abnormal heart beats. Types of acquired heart disease include. 1  Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.
