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. The knowledge gained from the analysis of this information will provide the basis for future genetic counseling as well as contribute to knowledge about the biology of normal and abnormal development of left-right anatomic asymmetry.
