    This study describes seven cases of a rare congenital heart defect,

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Cardiology
    • Congenital Heart Disease
    • Cardiac Morphology

    Background:

    • Transposition of the great arteries is a complex congenital heart defect.
    • Unusual anatomical variations require precise classification for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
    • Previous classifications of transposition have limitations in describing specific posterior aortic presentations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe seven cases of a specific type of transposition with a posterior aorta.
    • To propose a new term, 'p' transposition, for this anomaly.
    • To discuss the embryological basis of various forms of transposition.

    Main Methods:

    • Case study analysis of seven patients with a posterior aorta and mitral-aortic fibrous continuity.
    • Comparison with previously reported cases (Van Praagh et al., 1971).

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Morphogenetic and semantic analysis of the term 'transposition'.
  • Main Results:

    • Detailed description of seven cases exhibiting an unusually posterior aorta and mitral-aortic fibrous continuity.
    • These cases share similarities with previously documented rare forms of transposition.
    • The proposed term 'p' transposition effectively distinguishes this anomaly from 'd' and 'l' transposition.

    Conclusions:

    • The term 'p' transposition is proposed for this specific anomaly, aiding in clearer communication and diagnosis.
    • The term 'transposition' is semantically and morphogenetically justifiable for these conditions.
    • A common embryological mechanism may underlie all forms of transposition, warranting further investigation.
