Abstract:
Although surgical options for double outlet right ventricle (DORV) with non-committed ventricular septal defect (VSD) are vary in accordance to the morphological characteristics, it is very difficult to use biventricular repair technique when there is tricuspid chordae originating from conal septum or when the distance between the tricuspid valve and the pulmonic valve is too short. We report our clinical experience of biventricular repair of DORV with non- committed VSD by VSD rerouting to the pulmonary artery and arterial switch in case of a presence of conal tricuspid chordae and short distance between the tricuspid valve and the pulmonic valve.
