Coronal CT Image of Tricuspid Atresia with Bidirectional Glenn Shunt and Fontan in a 19-Year-Old
The coronal CT image of a 19-year-old patient with tricuspid atresia, treated with a bidirectional Glenn shunt and Fontan procedure, provides a detailed view of the altered cardiac anatomy and surgically modified circulation. This medical image is an essential resource for medical students, radiologists, and cardiologists aiming to understand the structural changes associated with tricuspid atresia and the outcomes of these palliative procedures. By examining the labeled anatomical features, this guide offers a comprehensive exploration of the heart’s condition and the impact of surgical interventions on long-term circulation.
