Overview
The exact pathogenesis of [disease name] is not fully understood.
OR
It is thought that [disease name] is the result of / is mediated by / is produced by / is caused by either [hypothesis 1], [hypothesis 2], or [hypothesis 3].
OR
[Pathogen name] is usually transmitted via the [transmission route] route to the human host.
OR
Following transmission/ingestion, the [pathogen] uses the [entry site] to invade the [cell name] cell.
OR
[Disease or malignancy name] arises from [cell name]s, which are [cell type] cells that are normally involved in [function of cells].
OR
The progression to [disease name] usually involves the [molecular pathway].
OR
The pathophysiology of [disease/malignancy] depends on the histological subtype.
Pathophysiology
Physiology
The normal physiology of [name of process] can be understood as follows:
Pathogenesis
- Dextrocardia is a cardiac anomaly in which the major axis of the heart from base to apex points to the right side.[1]
- Dextrocardia with a normal abdominal situs has a 90 to 95% chance of associated congenital cardiac anomalies including atrial septal defect, transposition of the great vessels, and ventricular septal defect. It has a lower incidence (0 to 10%) in the presence of situs inversus.[2]
Genetics
[Disease name] is transmitted in [mode of genetic transmission] pattern.
OR
Genes involved in the pathogenesis of [disease name] include:
- [Gene1]
- [Gene2]
- [Gene3]
OR
The development of [disease name] is the result of multiple genetic mutations such as:
- [Mutation 1]
- [Mutation 2]
- [Mutation 3]
Associated Conditions
Conditions associated with [disease name] include:[3][4][1]
- Tricuspid atresia
- Transposition of the great vessels
- Pulmonary stenosis
- Double-outlet double-inlet ventricle
- Single ventricle
- Sick sinus syndrome
- Situs inversus
- Situs solitus
- Situs ambiguous
- Kartagener syndrome
Gross Pathology
On gross pathology, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
Microscopic Pathology
On microscopic histopathological analysis, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
