Criss-cross heart is an extremely rare anomaly, characterized by an abnormal rotation of the ventricular mass along its major axis. It may be associated with any malformation of the heart segments and connections. Due to the complex structural changes and rarity of the anomaly, the rotation of ventricular axis is often misdiagnosed. In this paper, two cases of criss-cross heart are reported, with emphasis on diagnostic and surgical techniques used to corrected the main defects. A literature review on the subject is also presented which, although sparse, emphasized on the morphologic, diagnostic and surgical aspects of the anomaly.
交叉心脏是一种极其罕见的心脏畸形,其特征为心室团块沿其长轴发生异常旋转。它可能与心脏节段及连接的任何畸形相关。由于该畸形结构变化复杂且罕见,心室轴旋转常被误诊。本文报告了两例交叉心脏病例,重点介绍了用于纠正主要缺陷的诊断和手术技术。同时还对该主题进行了文献综述,尽管相关文献稀少,但着重阐述了该畸形的形态学、诊断及手术方面的内容。
