Total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR) is rare (accounting for about 1% of all CHD) and can occur as a single lesion or in combination with other types of CHD (such as heterotaxy or HLHS). TAPVR is defined as an abnormal connection where all pulmonary veins do not drain into the left atrium but into the right atrium either directly or through a vein that is connected to the right atrium. TAPVR can be divided into four anatomic groups (Fig.

Article Synopsis
  • Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is essential for screening athletes, particularly those under 40 with symptoms or family histories related to cardiac issues, as well as in follow-up cases of cardiovascular disease.
  • It is a cost-effective imaging tool for assessing heart changes from intense training (the athlete's heart) and for identifying serious conditions that could lead to sudden cardiac death, such as cardiomyopathies.
  • An expert opinion from the Italian Society of Sports Cardiology highlights scenarios for TTE use, differentiating between normal and abnormal heart adaptations, and recommends a standardized dataset for reporting TTE findings in sports cardiology.

The asymptomatic and slow progressive nature of cardiopathies represents a risk to the welfare of avian species in human care. Diagnosis and treatment of cardiac disease in birds pose a challenge due to unique anatomic and physiologic characteristics. Comprehensive cardiac assessments with diagnostic tools such as echocardiography, color-Doppler, the biomarker cardiac troponin I (cTn1), and cholesterol serum concentrations have been utilized in different bird species with varying success.
