AbstractThe Holt–Oram syndrome was confirmed in an asymptomatic 36-year-old man by a novel TBX5-gene mutation (exon 8 acceptor splicing site, c.663-1G greater than A). Computed tomography showed an atrial septal defect and an anomalous right coronary artery crossing between the aorta and pulmonary arteries. Surgery corrected the septal defect and the initial segment of the anomalous vessel was unroofed and enlarged. Anomalous coronary arteries were not previously described in the Holt–Oram syndrome patients and should be added to the list of possible associated cardiac defects.

Background: Holt–Oram syndrome (HOS) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations of TBX5 gene.Case presentation: We report a fetus with HOS diagnosed sonographically at 23 weeks of gestation. The fetal parents are non-consanguineous. The fetus exhibited short radius and ulna, inability to supinate the hands, absence of the right thumb, and heart ventricular septal defect (VSD), while the fetal father exhibited VSD and short radius and ulna only. Fetal brother had cubitus valgus and thumb adduction, except for VSD, short radius and ulna. The pregnancy was terminated. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) revealed a novel mutation in the TBX5 (c.510+1G>A) in the fetus inherited from the father. The variant (c.510+1G>A) occurs at splice donor and may alter TBX5 gene function by impact on splicing. It was not previously reported in China.Conclusion: Our case reported a novel mutation in TBX5, which expanded the known genetic variants associated with HOS.

Introduction. Aortopulmonary window (APW) is a rare congenital anomaly caused by incomplete division of the embryonic common arterial trunk which allows direct and usually unobstructed communication between the ascending aorta and pulmonary artery trunk. Holt-Oram syndrome (HOS) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by the mutation in the TBX5 gene and it is characterized by bones abnormalities in at least one limb while the association with APW is extremely rare. Case report. We report a case of a female patient in her thirties with an extremely rare combination of the HOS and APW window that reached the adulthood without surgical correction. The adult patient came to our clinic with signs of severe heart failure and pulmonary hypertension. Although previously diagnosed as inoperable, after the decongestive medical treatment and detailed diagnostic procedures we proved reactive pulmonary vascular resistance and the patient was successfully surgically treated. Conclusion. This case confirms the absolute necessity of cautious and comprehensive examinations of each patient with congenital heart disease and pulmonary hypertension irrespective of age.
