  17. What cardiac defect is classified by the pulmonary artery or arteries originating off a single great vessel arising from the heart?
    Truncus arteriosus
  18. In truncus arteriosus a single truncal valve may arise but it is least likely to arise over what?
    Left ventricle
  19. What are the two most common places for the truncus arteriosus to arrive from in the heart?
    • * 1. Middle of the heart just superior to a VSD
    • * 2. Over the right ventricle

    It is connected to the right ventricle
  22. What happens to the aorta & ventricles in L-transposition of the great arteries?
    • * -The aorta is connected to the morphologic
    • right ventricle
    • * -The ventricles are inverted

    The origin of the pulmonary arteries
  26. What are the four classifications by Colette and Edwards for truncus arteriosus? Which is the most common
    • * -Type I: Single short main pulmonary artery arises off the left lateral trunk
    • * -Type II: two separate pulmonary arteries arise off the posteriolateral trunk
    • * -Type III: widely spaced pulmonary arteries come off the lateral trunk
    • * -Type IV: pulmonary arteries come off the descending aorta
    • * -Type I is the most common
  27. In both corrected and complete transposition of the great arteries, what is connected to the morphologic left ventricle? Right ventricle?
    • * -Aorta
    • * -pulmonary artery
  28. With transposition of the great arteries which 2 fetal heart views will be abnormal?
    • * Short access view of the great vessels
    • * Long access view of the great vessel
