MOLECULAR AND GENETIC INSIGHTS INTO THORACIC AORTIC DILATION IN CONOTRUNCAL HEART DEFECTS

Thoracic aortic dilation (AD) has commonly been described in conotruncal defects (CTD), such as tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), double outlet right ventricle (DORV) and transposition of the great arteries (TGA), and truncus arteriosus. Several theories for this have been devised, but fairly recent data...
