Abstract
he data of the echocardiographycal examination of 22 patients (from 7 to 14 years old) with dysplasia of the spine are analised. High frequency of minor cardiae anomalies among the patients of this group is noted (95,5%). Diagonal trabeculae are the most frequent among minor cardiac anomalies (68%), moreover in 1/3 of the cases multiple diagonal trabeculae are noted. Mitral valve prolaps is diagnosed in 40,9% of cases, as a rule with abnormal chordae fixation. The connection between some dysplasia of the spine and some minor cardiac anomalies development are revealled. Hitg incidence of minor cardiac anomalies in children with displasia of the spine may prove the role of connective tissue dysplasia in genesis of this state and suppose common mechanisms of these states development.
