    Author: Li B, Long ZR, Liu ZH.
    Journal: Di Yi Jun Yi Da Xue Xue Bao; 2004 Aug; 24(8):956-7. PubMed ID: 15321774.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To study the value of color echocardiography in diagnosis of neonatal cyanotic congenital heart disease (NCHD). METHOD: A total of 149 cyanotic neonates were examined by color echocardiography, of whom 25 were diagnosed having NCHD and analyzed for classification. RESULTS: Such complex deformities as transposition of the major arteries, tetralogy of Fallot, single ventricle, persistent truncus arteriosus were found in these 25 cases of NCHD, of which major artery transposition was the most common defects, followed by tetralogy of Fallot and then by single ventricle. CONCLUSION: Color echocardiography can be used routinely in diagnosis of congenital heart disease of cyanotic neonates.
