  • Title: Left atrial isomerism combined with right-sided heart, common atrium, incomplete atrioventricular septal defect and partial anomalous systemic and pulmonary venous drainage. Report of a case with successful surgical correction.
    Author: Ahmadi A, Mocellin R, Spillner G.
    Journal: Int J Cardiol; 1988 Jun; 19(3):378-81. PubMed ID: 3397202.
    Abstract:
    Precise preoperative diagnostic clarification was accomplished in an infant with left atrial isomerism. The inner/outer arrangement of the pulmonary/systemic veins in relation to the posterior wall of the common atrium necessitated a specific baffle in order to prevent pulmonary or systemic venous obstruction. The development of a sick sinus syndrome six months after surgery is in keeping with the natural history of the disease.
