Abstract:The necropsy of a 2-day-old Noma horse that died of weakness showed an enlarged cardiac
base and a narrow cardiac apex, suggesting cardiac malformation. The excised heart
underwent imaging to investigate its luminal structure. On three-dimensional magnetic
resonance imaging, the right atrium and right ventricle were discontinuous. The right
atrium communicated with the left atrium and the left ventricle communicated with the
right ventricle. The lumen narrowed near the pulmonary artery valve. Since the same
