  Right Heart Enlargement
#1

    A premature newborn was sent for a follow-up ultrasound of the heart (Echocardiography) to the public clinic, in the extract from the maternity hospital: PFO 2 mm, PDA, no dilatation of the heart chambers was noted.

    On the current ultrasound of the heart, dilatation of the right heart is visualized with the prevalence (predominance) of the right heart over the left (i.e. the right chambers are wider than the left; differential diagnosis: severe pulmonary hypertension, HLHS, etc.), blood shunting is also visualized from the left to the right through an ASD of the ostium secundum type up to 6 mm in size with Vmax up to 1 m/s. Vmax in PA up to 1.7 m/s.
