Overview
Echocardiography is the imaging modality of choice for tricuspid atresia. Findings include:
- Atrial septal defect (ASD)
- Ventricular septum defect (VSD)
- Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA)
- Aortic arch anomaly
- Theleft ventricle is larger than the right ventricle
- Color flow doppler is absent between theright atrium and right ventricle
