✦ Synopsis

In a child with trisomy-18 prenatal echocardiography demonstrated the presence of a ventricular septal defect with overriding aorta. In a previous anatomical study of 18 hearts with this malformation we found a 50% concurrence rate with trisomy-18. In case of prenatal echocardiographic detection of a ventricular septal defect with overriding aorta, we advise thorough ultrasound examination for additional malformations as seen in trisomy-18; subsequently this procedure should be completed by cytogenetic analysis of amniotic ceils.

During routine cardiac catheterization often patients with ventricular septal defect, the hemodynamic parameters were measured in the resting state and during sodium nitroprusside infusion at an average rate of 8/zg/kg/min. Two distinct hemodynamic groups could be identified. Group I characterised b
