[Verse 1] Freeze the frame, echo's rolling, four chambers on the screen, Trunk sits saddled on the septum, one vessel, one machine, Follow the sweep past the valve where the PA ostia hide, Type II keeps 'em close together, posterior, side by side, CT angiogram spins it slow, three-sixty, no more guessing, Normal heart, then the defect, then the fix we're second-guessing, Spot the VSD like a doorway punched beneath the crest, Chambers, trunk, and holes — advanced eyes pass the test. [Chorus] One trunk, two roads, VSD's the open floor, Count the ostia, trace the arch, that's the cardiac practical law, Echo, CT, printed heart, diagram, then the chart, Four stations, one rhythm — anatomy's the art. [Verse 2] Now the model's in your palm, resin cooled and true, Three hearts on the table — normal, defect, and post-repair too, Run your finger where the trunk forks off before the split, Feel the conoventricular gap, malalignment, the misfit, Turn it over, right arch curling like a backwards question mark, Spiral branch pulmonaries twisting, corkscrewed through the dark, This ain't textbook flat — it's contour, depth, and weight, Palpate the pathology before you palpate fate. [Chorus] One trunk, two roads, VSD's the open floor, Count the ostia, trace the arch, that's the cardiac practical law, Echo, CT, printed heart, diagram, then the chart, Four stations, one rhythm — anatomy's the art. [Verse 3] Blank page, dotted outline, no labels, only lines, Name the trunk, the VSD, the ostia, and the signs, Normal sheet beside the type II, beside the post-op view, Pencil down what's missing — annotate what's true, Right ventricle, left ventricle, the valve that overrides, Draw the conduit corridor where the old trunk subdivides, Full credit's in the labels, not the sketch you underline, Precision beats a pretty picture every single time. [Verse 4] Baby born, murmur heard, day one on the chart, Type II confirmed — spiral PAs, right arch from the start, Complete repair goes in, twelve-millimeter conduit laid, Narrate it: trunk detached, VSD patched, pathway remade, Months pass, gradient climbing, conduit's getting tight, Echo shows the narrowing, catheter lab tonight, Balloon inflates the stenosis, pressure gradient falls, Tell the story chamber by chamber — that's what the case recalls. [Bridge] Trunk to VSD to ostia to arch, Say it walking through the imaging, don't lose the march, Model, diagram, echo, case — same anatomy, four lenses, Advanced recall means no station catches your defenses. [Chorus] One trunk, two roads, VSD's the open floor, Count the ostia, trace the arch, that's the cardiac practical law, Echo, CT, printed heart, diagram, then the chart, Four stations, one rhythm — anatomy's the art. [Outro] Trunk, VSD, ostia, arch — say it till it's memorized, Type II, post-repair, normal — every state internalized.
