Overview

Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection should be differentiated from other cyanotic congenital heart diseases found in the pediatrics population

Differentiating Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection from other Diseases

• Tetralogy of Fallot
• Persistent truncus arteriosus
• Transposition of the great vessels
• Tricuspid atresia
• Trilogy of Fallot
• Pentalogy of Fallot

Disorders	Etiology	Clinical Presentation	Laboratory Findings	Electrocardiogram	Echocardiography
Tetralogy of Fallot	Multifactorial Genetic polymorphisms Maternal rubella Poor prenatal nutrition Maternal alcohol use Maternal diabetes	Cyanosis on exertion Exertional dyspnea Palpitations Fatigue	CBC: Anemia or polycythemia. Coagulation profile. Arterial blood gas: Low oxygen saturation and acidosis	Right ventricular hypertrophy Right bundle branch block Tachycardia Rate of QRS change predicts ventricular arrhythmia	Echocardiography may show: Residual VSD or ASD RV outflow tract obstruction Abnormal valvular anatomy
Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection	Multifactorial Genetic polymorphisms Maternal rubella Poor prenatal nutrition Maternal alcohol use Maternal diabetes	Tachypnea Palpitations Cyanosis Failure to thrive	Arterial blood gas: Low oxygen saturation and acidosis Coagulation profile.	Right ventricular hypertrophy with a qR pattern	Right ventricular hypertrophy Right ventricular loading Paradoxical septal motion
Tricuspid Atresia	Multifactorial Genetic polymorphisms Maternal rubella Poor prenatal nutrition Maternal alcohol use Maternal diabetes	Respiratory difficulties as nasal flaring or muscle retractions Cyanosis Growth retradation	Arterial blood gases CBC: Polycythemia Coagulation profile	Tall P waves indicate atrial enlargement. First-degree atrioventricular block. Frontal plane QRS axis may be leftward.	Echocardiography may show Defect size Pulmonary blood flow Ventricular function Valve abnormalities
Transposition of the Great Arteries	Multifactorial Genetic polymorphisms Poor prenatal nutrition Maternal alcohol use Maternal diabetes	Prominent cyanosis within hours of birth Congestive heart failure	Arterial blood gases: Hypoxemia Hyperoxia test	Right ventricular hypertrophy Right axis deviation Varying degrees of AV block Q waves	Echocardiography may show: Relationship between great vessels Associated anatomic lesions Coronary artery origin and branches
