    Background: Taussig-Bing is one of the variants of the double outlet right ventricle. The characteristic feature of the Taussig-Bing anomaly (TBA) that makes it different from partial transposition of the great arteries is sub pulmonary ventricular septal defect. Morphometric studies of hearts with TBA are limited and in the majority of cases do not contain quantitative assessment of intracardiac structures. The aim of this study was to measure intracardiac structures (e.g. cardiac mass, diameter of valves, thickness of the myocardium), to assess their deviation from the individual norm, as well to determine how these parameters are influenced by anatomical variant of the lesion, anthropometric variability or pulmonary hypertension. Methods: Thirty pediatric hearts with TBA underwent morphometric assessment. The median age at the moment of deat.. View More»
