Double outlet left ventricle.

A case, the sixth, ofdouble outlet left ventricle is reported, the diagnosis being made by cardiac catheterization and angiocardiography. Though the existence of such a malformation has been questioned on embryologicalgrounds, double outlet left ventricle must now be regarded as a recognized cardiac anomaly. The embryological significance of this case is discussed and it is suggested that the m...

Double outlet right ventricle: clinical and anatomical spectrum.

Thirty-two patients with double outlet right ventricle (DORV) were studied between 1960 and 1976. Associated congenital defects frequently compounded the difficulty of clinical diagnosis. Cardiac catheterisation was performed in 27 patients, and the ventriculograms were studied with particular regard to the relative positions of the great vessels to each other and to the ventricular septal defe...

Surgical Management of Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction after Biventricular Repair of Double Outlet Right Ventricle

Regardless of the preoperative morphology and the type of operation, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO) after biventricular repair of double outlet right ventricle (DORV) may develop. This report presents our 10-yr experience with surgical management of LVOTO after biventricular repair of DORV. Between 1996 and 2006, 15 patients underwent reoperation for subaortic stenosis after...
