A 4-year-old child is referred to the pediatric echocardiography laboratory for routine serial surveillance six weeks after completing initial treatment for Kawasaki disease. During the evaluation, the sonographer meticulously images the main, left, and right coronary artery pathways. Which of the following echocardiographic findings represents the complication of greatest clinical concern for this patient?  

A 34-year-old male patient presents to the adult echocardiography laboratory for a routine echo. He has a median sternotomy surgical scar, however he does not know his diagnosis. Your imaging reveals an anatomically normal right ventricle acting as the systemic pump and an anatomically normal left ventricle acting as a pulmonary pump with what appears to be atrial baffles. What is the most likely diagnosis and what is important to evaluate?

Which congenital heart defect is MOST commonly associated with 22q11 deletion syndrome?  

During early embryonic development, the septation of the common atrial cavity into separate chambers requires the coordinated growth of multiple tissue membranes. The crescent-shaped septum primum grows downward toward the endocardial cushions to form a primary barrier. In mature cardiac anatomy, a persistent defect at the lowermost margin of this membrane is classified as which of the following?

Which cardiopulmonary life support provides isolated lung support and no mechanical circulatory support to the heart by pulling deoxygenated blood from a large systemic vein and passes it through an external oxygenator, and returns it directly back into another systemic vein or the right atrium (RA)?

Which is the most likely cardiac structure noted in this TEE 2D color and PW Doppler image is indicated by the arrow?
