[Clinicopathological correlations in the common atrioventricular canal].

20 patients with endocardial cushion defects were studied. Partial forms of common atrioventricular canal and those associated with complex congenital malformations were not considered. The right and left ventricular inflow and outflow tracts were measured and average values of inflow tract/outflow tract were calculated for each anatomical form of the disease. We found this ratio to be significantly smaller in Group B2 compared to Group B1 of Enriquez de Salamanca's classification, the first group being considered to be a more severe congenital malformation than the second. The inflow tract/outflow tract ratio of the right ventricle ranged between 80% and 50%, with an average of 62.3% in Group B1 compared to 62% and 24% with an average of 49% in Group B2. Using Studert's test, this difference was shown to be statistically significant (p = 0.02). On the other hand, there was no correlation between the other parameters or between the severity of the anatomical lesions and the clinical condition. The reduction of the right ventricular inflow tract may give an indication as to the type of atrioventricular valve which may be present.

Uhl's anomaly associated with pulmonary atresia.

We present a case of Uhl's anomaly associated with atresia of the pulmonary valve. The rarity of this association is noteworthy, only three cases having previously been published. Our case presents the peculiarity of a patient with a normal tricuspid valve.

[Parachute tricuspid valve associated with Fallot's tetralogy].

Parachute deformity of the tricuspid valve was observed with a severe form of Fallot's Tetralogy with pulmonary atresia in a newborn. Signs of tricuspid stenosis (peripheral oedema, right atrial dilatation, hepatomegaly and conduction defects) were associated with the clinical signs of the principal malformation (severe hypoxaemia). To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of parachute deformity of the tricuspid valve.

[Right ventricle with double outlet and intact interventricular septum. Report of 1 case and review of the literature].

Double outlet right ventricle with an intact interventricular septum is an exceedingly rare malformation. Only six other cases have been found in the world literature. The clinical, electrocardiographic, radiological and anatomical features of this condition were reviewed on the occasion of the diagnosis of a new case. Cardiac catheterisation and angiography performed in only one other case is not definitive in the presence of mitral atresia.
