“…This congenital defect was first described by Lev and Rowlatt in 1961, but it was only in 1974 that Anderson et al first used the term crisscross heart. A total of 316 cases of the anomaly have been reported in articles cited in PubMed to date (2016) …”

“…Most patients have VSDs, transposition of the great arteries, double‐outlet right ventricle, hypoplastic right ventricle, PS and tricuspid hypoplasia, the latter present in most patients. Other associated defects, although less frequent, are straddling mitral or tricuspid valves, subaortic stenosis, aortic arch obstruction, and mitral stenosis . Anomalies of the coronary circulation may be present and are usually related to the ventricular position, and in these cases, magnetic resonance image (MRI) and angiography are useful tools in the diagnosis and approach .…”

Crisscross heart is a rare cardiac malformation characterized by crossing of the inflow streams of the two ventricles due to a twisting of the heart about its long axis. The developmental mechanisms and causes of crisscross heart remain unknown. Neonates present with cyanosis and a systolic murmur. In this study, we report a case of crisscross heart with situs inversus, concordant atrioventricular and ventriculo arterial connection with ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis, and review the literature on this rare cardiac malformation.

“…Essa cardiopatia é resultante de uma anomalia de rotação embrionária da massa ventricular, no seu eixo longo, de forma horária ou anti-horária, sem movimentação concomitante dos átrios. Dessa forma, os ventrículos alteram a sua relação espacial e posicionam-se, de maneira contralateral aos átrios aos quais se conectam (ANDERSON et al, 1974;DE RUBENS FIGUEIROA et al, 2009).…”

Introdução: uma das más-formações congênitas de maior morbimortalidade é a presença de entrecruzamento das vias de entrada ventriculares, ou Criss-cross heart (CCH). Sendo assim, além da prevenção primária, é vital o diagnóstico precoce e intervenção cirúrgica adequada, na tentativa de otimizar o prognóstico do paciente, evitando intercorrências graves e fatais. Relato de caso: Gemelar feminino, 20 dias de vida, proveniente de consultório médico, admitido no Serviço de Neonatologia em uma maternidade de referência, no município de João Pessoa - PB, apresentando dispneia e acrocianose progressivas. A ecocardiografia transtorácica evidenciou situs solitus, havendo conexões atrioventriculares. Discussão: as anomalias congênitas, especialmente as malformações cardíacas, representam um desafio significativo para a saúde neonatal. O diagnóstico precoce, o acompanhamento rigoroso e a intervenção adequada são essenciais para melhorar o prognóstico desses pacientes. Embora raras, requerem atenção especial devido à sua complexidade e características únicas. Conclusão: a utilidade do ecocardiograma fetal, como método diagnóstico pré-natal de cardiopatias congênitas complexas como a CCH, possibilita um planejamento pós-natal mais adequado. Mesmo diante da raridade e dos impasses ao diagnóstico, o conhecimento precoce dessa cardiopatia é de grande importância para redução dos efeitos deletérios da doença.

“…A heart with a criss-cross atrioventricular connection is a condition in which the ventricles are positioned contralaterally to the atria to which they are connected; thus, the ventricular inflow tracts are crossed. 1,2 Most congenital cardiac centers now perform an anatomic repair for ccTGA if the two well-developed ventricles have no other significant heart abnormalities. 3 However, because our patient had an additional, significant cardiac abnormality (criss-cross connection) we determined that a physiologic repair would be best given that an anatomic repair would be technically difficult.…”

Congenitally corrected transposition of great arteries is an uncommon congenital heart disease characterized by discordance at both the atrioventricular and ventriculoarterial connections. A rare subgroup of patients with congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries also has a criss-cross heart. The morphology of these patients represents a diagnostic challenge that requires critical analysis to perform a satisfactory surgical procedure. We present a case of a 12-year-old patient with the above mentioned anatomy who underwent physiologic repair.
