Descriptor síndrome de heterotaxia
Entry term(s) heterotaxia visceral
síndrome heterotáxico
Scope note: Disposición anormal de las VÍSCERAS toracoabdominales (heterotaxia visceral) o malformación que involucra adicionalmente CARDIOPATÍAS CONGÉNITAS (por ejemplo, isomerismo del corazón; DEXTROCARDIA) y/o BAZO anormal (por ejemplo, asplenia o poliesplenia). Irregularidades en el sistema nervioso central, esqueleto y tracto urinario a menudo se asocian con el síndrome.

Scope note: Abnormal thoracoabdominal VISCERA arrangement (visceral heterotaxy) or malformation that involves additional CONGENITAL HEART DEFECTS (e.g., heart isomerism; DEXTROCARDIA) and/or abnormal SPLEEN (e.g., asplenia and polysplenia). Irregularities with the central nervous system, the skeleton and urinary tract are often associated with the syndrome.
