Hypoplastic right-heart syndrome (HRHS) is a rare, cyanotic congenital heart malformation caused by underdevelopment of the right-sided heart structures (tricuspid valve, RV, pulmonary valve, and pulmonary artery) commonly associated with an atrial septal defect, ostium secundum type. Pulmonary blood flow is diminished and right-to-left shunting occurs at the atrial level, leading to dyspnea, fatigue, atrial arrhythmias, right-sided heart failure, hypoxemia, repeated miscarriages that were mostly due to hypoxemia and cyanosis. Two subtypes of HRHS have been characterized: pulmonary atresia-intact ventricular septum and right ventricular hypoplasia.
No clinical trials have been registered for hypoplastic right heart syndrome.
14 publications have been identified in PubMed for hypoplastic right heart syndrome. Research spans Case Report / Case Series (64%), Review / Meta-Analysis (14%), and Epidemiology / Natural History (14%).
