3. Etiology
4. Classification
1. DEFINITION
The deformities of the heart structure and
vessels :
cardiac position
myocardium
lateral wall and septum
heart chambers
valves
systemic and pulmonary veins
great arteries, coronary arteries
2. INCIDENCE
• In the world : 0.7-0.8% live births
– Ventricular septal defect
VSD 20%
– Atrial septal defect
ASD 10%
– Patent ductus arteriosus
PDA 10%
– Aortic coarctation
– Aortic stenosis
CoA
AS
– Tetralogy of Fallot
– Pulmonary stenosis

2. INCIDENCE
• Mortality of CHD
3. ETIOLOGY
3.1. Gene and Family factor
• Gene mutation - inheredity
– Chromosome abnormalities : 13, 18, 21, 22
– Gender chromosome abnormalities : XO, XXY
• Heredity according to the Mendel’s law
3% of CHD
– Valvular deformities
– Cardiomyopathy
– Deformities of great vessels due to hereditary enzyme
disturbances
3. ETIOLOGY
3.1. Gene and Family factor
• Dominant heredity
– Syndromes have CHD and many other deformities
•

Erhler Danlos

AR, MS
VSD
PS
PS + HCM
– Only have CHD

Cardiac conduction disturbance
3. ETIOLOGY
3.1. Gene and Family factor
• Recessive heredity
– Blood-relation marriage
• Friedrich
• Jervell
• Ellis Van Creveld
– Gender chromosome heredity
• Duchene disease
• Hunter syndrome
3. ETIOLOGY
3.2. From enviroment
In pregnancy (1st trimester),mothers contact with
• X ray, radioactive ray
• Wine, cocaine
• Sedatives: thalidomide, amphetamine, trimethadione
Hydantoin
Productive hormones
• Viruses: rubella, measles, HSV, CMV, Coxsackie B
• Chronic diseases: SLE, diabetes, phenylketonuria
4. CLASSIFICATION OF CHD
• General
– Innocent or normal murmurs
– Cardiac malposition
– Ventricular inversion (corrected TGA)
– Complete heart block
4. CLASSIFICATION OF CHD
• General
–
–
–
–
Innocent or normal murmurs
Cardiac malposition
Ventricular inversion (corrected TGA)
Complete heart block
• Acyanotic
– without a shunt (normal or pulmonary blood flow
(PBF))
– with left-to-right shunt ( PBF)
• Cyanotic
PBF
– Normal or PBF
