Tricuspid atresia with absent pulmonary valve and intact ventricular septum: successful bidirectional cavopulmonary anastomosis with complete exclusion of the right ventricle.
Cheul LeeKyung Min KimJae Young LeeJihong YoonPublished in: Cardiology in the young (2019)
Tricuspid atresia with absent pulmonary valve and intact ventricular septum is an extremely rare cardiac malformation, historically associated with a poor prognosis. Only a few cases with successful surgical palliation have been reported in the literature. We present the case of an 8-month-old infant with this malformation who underwent successful bidirectional cavopulmonary anastomosis with complete exclusion of the right ventricle.
