Abstract: | One-and-a-half ventricle repair, consisting of endocardiectomy with tricuspid valve replacement and bidirectional cavopulmonary shunt, was performed on a patient with right ventricular endomyocardial fibrosis and right ventricular outflow tract obstruction. The patient made a smooth recovery. We believe that this repair provides good palliation for a subset of patients with right ventricular endomyocardial fibrosis. |
