Abstract

We describe a neonate with tricuspid atresia, absent pulmonary valve, right ventricular hypoplasia, small venrricular septal defect, left ventricular ourflow tract obstruction and a patent arterial duct. These finding were diagnosed by echocardiography and confirmed by cardiac catherterization and postmortem examination. This is a unique report of a functionally single ventricle variant of absent pulmonary valve syndrome and biventricular outlet obstuction.
