“…Type IC tricuspid atresia includes atrial situs solitus, normally related ventricles, and normally connected great vessels with no obstruction to pulmonary flow (Vlad, 1978). Prolonged survival in tricuspid atresia is rare and depends upon a delicate balance between the size of the ventricular septal defect(s) and the size of the pulmonary outlet (Jordon and Sanders, 1966;Patterson et a!., 1982). The few reported cases of survival to middle age with nontransposed tricuspid atresia appear to reflect instances where there is some degree of anatomic or functional obstruction to pulmonic outflow, thus protecting the pulmonary vasculature from high systemic pressures.…”

“…The elongated outflow tract permits optimal visualization of discrete subvalvular aortic stenosis [9,12]. Complete transposition, transposition of the great vessels, and double outlet RV can be optimally visualized frequently with a singular in.jection of contrast material [ 12,13,15,16]. Tricuspid atresia can be evaluated anatomically, functionally, and a surgical approach devised.…”

Axial oblique left ventriculography allows unique visualization of acquired and congenital cardiac lesions. However, validation of the accuracy of left ventricular (LV) volume with axial oblique projections is limited and clouded by orthogonal violations between biplane projections. Biplane cineradiographic volume measurement of 17 LV casts employing the axial projection 35 degrees right anterior oblique/55 degrees left anterior oblique/30 degrees cranial (35 degrees RAO/55 degrees LAO/30 degrees Cr) was performed and compared to the conventional postero-anterior/lateral (PA/Lat) and 30 degrees right anterior oblique/60 degrees left anterior oblique (30 degrees RAO/60 degrees LAO) views. LV volume was calculated from biplane cineradiograms by area length and Simpson's rule method. True LV volume by water displacement was 33 +/- 28 (mean +/- S.D.), range 15 to 112 ml. LV cast volume calculated by the area length method from cineradiograms was overestimated (p less than 0.002) but no different by Simpson's rule method (pNS). The ideal correlation was best approximated by the 35 degrees RAO/55 degrees LAO/30 degrees Cr biplane view calculated by Simpson's rule, r = 0.99, y = 3.5 + 0.9x, and standard error of estimate (SEE) = 4.3 ml. Biplane LV angiography with the axial projection permitted accurate LV volume measurement, and Simpson's rule provided the best representation of true volume.
