A combination of four congenital heart defects: VSD, pulmonary stenosis, right ventricular hypertrophy, and an overriding aorta. Complications include cyanosis and delayed growth. Surgery is the primary treatment.

Underdevelopment of the left side of the heart, affecting systemic blood flow. Consequences include heart failure and shock. Treatment involves a series of complex surgeries or heart transplantation.

The aorta and pulmonary artery are switched from their normal positions. Complications include lack of oxygen to the body and heart failure. Initial treatment is a medication to maintain ductal patency, followed by corrective surgery.

Both the aorta and pulmonary artery arise from the right ventricle. This anomaly can lead to severe cyanosis and heart failure. Corrective surgery is essential for survival.

The left coronary artery originates from the pulmonary artery instead of the aorta, leading to poor oxygenated blood supply to the heart muscle. This can result in myocardial infarction or heart failure in infants. Surgical reimplantation is the treatment of choice.

A narrowing of the pulmonary valve or artery that obstructs blood flow to the lungs. This can lead to right ventricular hypertrophy. Treatment options include balloon valvuloplasty or surgical repair.

Tricuspid valve is missing or abnormally developed, impairing blood flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle. Complications can be severe, including hypoxemia and heart failure. Treatment typically requires multiple surgeries.

A range of abnormalities resulting in a functional single ventricle, which can lead to insufficient circulation and cyanosis. Treatment involves a series of palliative surgeries culminating in the Fontan procedure.

Malformation of the tricuspid valve leading to blood leakage. Complications include heart failure and arrhythmias. Treatment may include medication, valve repair, or valve replacement.

Narrowing of the aorta that can cause hypertension and heart damage. Possible complications include burst aorta, stroke, and heart failure. Treatment typically involves surgical repair or angioplasty.

A defect in the septal wall dividing the ventricles, which can lead to heart failure and pulmonary hypertension. Treatment can range from watchful waiting to surgical repair, depending on the size and position of the defect.

A discontinuity of the aortic arch that can cause severe heart failure and death if not corrected. Treatment usually involves surgical repair soon after birth.

Pulmonary veins fail to connect normally to the left atrium. This can result in mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood, leading to cyanosis and heart failure. Surgical repair is necessary.

A hole in the septum between the heart's two upper chambers (atria). Complications may include right heart enlargement and arrhythmias. Treatments often include monitoring, medication, and potential closure by cardiac catheterization or surgery.

Failure of the ductus arteriosus to close after birth, resulting in irregular blood flow between the aorta and pulmonary artery. Complications can include heart failure and endocarditis. Treatment options include medication, catheter-based procedures, or surgery.

Absence or underdevelopment of the pulmonary valve, obstructing blood flow to the lungs. This can lead to heart failure or death if untreated. Treatment often involves multiple surgeries over time.

A defect which includes holes between the atria and ventricles, and abnormalities in the atrioventricular valves. Complications can include heart failure and pulmonary hypertension. Treatment generally involves surgery to repair the defect and valves.
