“…Congenital anomalous venous drainage can lead to increased blood flow within the CS with resultant dilatation [4][5][6]. Such studies have reported that CS dilation was related to right atrial pressure and size, but not to pulmonary artery pressure, in patients with pulmonary hypertension [7].…”

“…2 When readily visible on ultrasonographic images, the CS is often thought to represent congenital anomalous venous drainage leading to increased blood flow within the sinus with resultant dilation. [3][4][5] In the course of interpreting clinical studies for the evaluation of right-sided heart disease, we observed that the CS was frequently dilated on transthoracic echocardiograms in these patients. However,the prevalence of this finding remains undefined, as does its relation to right-sided heart structure and pressure.…”

“…Echocardiographic features of coarctation of the aorta have been described recently.3 Echocardiographic features of total anomalous pulmonary venous return were described,4 though the implications of demonstrating an echo-free space behind the left atrium have been challenged.5 6 The systolic time intervals, in the prognosis of neonates with respiratory distress syndrome, have been studied.7 However, a comparative analysis of these conditions has not been made and superficial similarities consisting of an enlarged right ventricle may exist. The purpose of this paper was to make a comparative analysis of the echocardiographic features of conditions presenting with pulmonary hypertension and congestive cardiac failure in the neonate.…”

SUMMARY Echocardiographic dimensions in infants (less than 2 months) with pulmonary hypertension, associated with coarctation of the aorta in 21, total anomalous venous return in 10, and left-to-right shunts in 14 were compared with 10 infants with respiratory distress syndrome, seven with transient tachypnoea of the newborn, 20 normal children, and with each other. Distinguishing features of total anomalous pulmonary venous return were very significantly lower left atrial and left ventricular dimensions. Right ventricular enlargement was maximal in patients with coarctation of the aorta and total anomalous pulmonary venous return. Left ventricular end-diastolic dimension in coarctation of the aorta was not significantly different from normal but the left ventricular end-systolic dimension was significantly lower, suggesting a hypercontractile left ventricle. Similar findings were observed in patients with left-to-right shunts.M-mode echocardiograms are hence valuable in differentiating conditions which may present with intractable congestive cardiac failure in the newborn and also distinguishing them from common respiratory disease of the neonate.
