Isomerism of atrial appendages - what does this mean
Isomerism of atrial appendages is a rare congenital heart defect where the two atrial appendages (small, finger-like structures that protrude from the heart) are not symmetrical. it is caused by the incomplete division of the primitive atrium during embryonic development.
What happens during the disease - isomerism of atrial appendages
Isomerism of atrial appendages is a rare congenital anomaly caused by an abnormal development of the left atrium and right atrium during embryonic development. this anomaly results in the presence of two right atria or two left atria instead of one right and one left atrium. this can lead to a variety of cardiac malformations, including abnormal connections between the atria and the pulmonary veins, the inferior vena cava and the coronary sinus. it can also lead to a variety of arrhythmias and can cause severe heart failure.

Isomerism of atrial appendages - Prevention
The prevention of isomerism of atrial appendages can be achieved through prenatal ultrasound imaging, which can identify the condition before birth. additionally, regular prenatal care and monitoring can help to detect any abnormalities in the development of the heart, allowing for timely intervention if needed.
