Evolution of Ventricular Energetics in the Different Stages of Palliation of Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome: A Retrospective Clinical Study.

abstract：:A ventriculoseptal defect (VSD) usually is present in patients with a double-outlet right ventricle. This report describes a case of double-outlet right ventricle with a completely shrouded inlet VSD and no interventricular shunting. This was associated with a severely regurgitant dysplastic mitral valve. The anatomy ...
