*'''Pulmonic stenosis'''
  −
*'''Right ventricular hypertrophy'''
  −
*'''High VSD'''
  −
*'''Overriding aorta'''
  −
  −
Commonly reported in certain breeds, E.g Keeshond, Schnauzer, Poodles and terriers.
  −
  −
''Clinical Signs:''
  −
*Cyanotic; see severe exercise intolerance.
  −
*Systolic murmur due to pulmonic stenosis +/- precordial thrill.
  −
*Polycythemia due to chronic hypoxia.
  −
  −
''Diagnosis:''
  −
*Right ventricular enlargement on radiology and ECG.
  −
*Post stenotic dilatation of pulmonary artery on radiology and pulmonary undercirculation due to right to left shunting.
  −
*Echocardiography may show right ventricular hypertrophy, paradoxical motion of interventricular septum (pressure RV>LV), visulaisation of VSD and overriding aorta.
  −
*Doppler useful to image pulmonic stenosis and VSD.
