UW says that TGV is a failure of the arteries to spiral, that I know. But it says it is due to a failure of Septation? That I would think is Truncus? Why wouldn't it be a failure of Migration? Anyone have an idea?

Click to expand...

they probably meant a failure of PROPER septation (so the neural crests migrate there but don't spiral). truncus would be a failure of migration. i think the most important thing to know is what cardiac defects are due to a failure of proper neural crest migration (TGV, truncus, and tetralogy). I highly doubt they will go into more specifics than that.
