We report a previously unrecognized association between a hypertrophic frenulum separating the alveolar portion of the maxillary palatine suture with hypoplastic left heart syndrome in one fetus and seven children. A hypertrophic frenulum was not found in 25 pediatric cardiology patients without hypoplastic left heart syndrome. This finding may provide a marker for suspecting hypoplastic left heart syndrome in the neonate.
我们报告了1例胎儿和7名儿童中,将上颌腭缝的牙槽部分分开的肥厚系带与左心发育不全综合征之间存在一种此前未被认识到的关联。在25例无左心发育不全综合征的儿科心脏病患者中未发现肥厚系带。这一发现可能为怀疑新生儿左心发育不全综合征提供一个标志物。
