Investigating the Genetics of Heterotaxy and Congenital Heart Defects
Brief description of study.
The purpose of this study is to obtain information from individuals and their families with heterotaxy and related congenital heart defects in order to elucidate the molecular genetics of this disorder.
Detailed description of study
The goal of this study is to obtain specimens and data from individuals and their families with heterotaxy and related congenital heart defects in order to clarify the molecular genetics of this disorder.

You may be eligible for this study if you meet the following criteria:
- Conditions: heterotaxy,congenital heart defect,chd,heart defect,congenital
-
Age: 100 years or below
-
Gender: All
Inclusion Criteria
Patients with heterotaxy and related congenital heart defects

This study investigates the genetics behind heterotaxy and related congenital heart defects. Heterotaxy is a condition where the internal organs are abnormally arranged within the chest and abdomen. The purpose of the study is to gather information from affected individuals and their families to better understand the genetic causes of these conditions.
Participants will provide specimens and data for research. This involves collecting samples and information that will help researchers study the molecular genetics of heterotaxy and related heart defects.
- Who can participate: Individuals with heterotaxy and related congenital heart defects, along with their family members, are eligible to participate. Individuals without heterotaxy and related congenital heart defects, and their family members, are not eligible to participate.
- Study details: Participants will provide specimens and data.
