Criss-cross heart (CCH) is an extremely rare complex congenital heart malformation. It accounts for less than 0.1% of congenital heart diseases. Here, we describe a unique case of CCH with double-outlet right ventricle, huge subpulmonary ventricular septal defect, bicuspid pulmonary valve, and right-hand aortic arch. The anatomic features were observed with echocardiography, and the diagnosis was confirmed at surgery. Many variations of CCH have been described. The present case expands the spectrum of this entity and may provide new insight into this complex anatomy.
十字交叉心(CCH)是一种极其罕见的复杂先天性心脏畸形。它占先天性心脏病的比例不到0.1%。在此,我们描述了一例独特的CCH病例,其合并右心室双出口、巨大的肺动脉下室间隔缺损、二尖瓣肺动脉瓣以及右手主动脉弓。通过超声心动图观察其解剖特征,并在手术中得到确诊。已经描述了CCH的多种变异情况。本病例扩展了该疾病的范围,可能为这种复杂的解剖结构提供新的见解。
