title: [Double outlet right ventricle (DORV) in a 15 month old heifer].
abstract: The clinical findings, results of further investigations and necropsy of a 15-month old heifer with multiple congenital heart defects are presented. The symptoms were caused by a high ventricle septum defect and a hypoplastic, completely dextroponed aorta (DORV). Hematology, radiology and ultrasonography findings, right heart and pulmonary blood pressure, and blood gas measurements, as well as electro- and phonocardiograms are presented. The consequences of the multiple cardiac anomalies for the pulmonary circulation are described.
