  • Title: Pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum and hypoplastic right ventricle in an Arabian foal.
    Author: Krüger MU, Wünschmann A, Ward C, Stauthammer CD.
    Journal: J Vet Cardiol; 2016 Sep; 18(3):284-289. PubMed ID: 27283083.
    Abstract:
    Pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum, rudimentary tricuspid valve, hypoplastic right ventricle, and right-to-left atrial shunting were identified in a four-day-old, male Arabian foal with clinical signs of cyanotic heart disease. Pulmonary blood flow was apparently derived from a ductus arteriosus. Echocardiographic evaluation revealed the majority of cardiac abnormalities and also findings compatible with right-sided congestive heart failure. Congenital cardiac defects have a high incidence in this breed, and this is the first description of this combination of congenital cardiac defects.
