Fig 1 Our suture line (broken line) for septation for double-inlet left ventricle with left anterior rudimentary right ventricle and discordant ventriculoarterial connection. (Ao = aorta; LA = left atrium; LAVV = left atrioventricular valve; PA = pulmonary artery; RA = right atrium; RAVV = right atrioventricular valve; VSD = ventricular septal defect.)

Fig 2 Angiocardiograms made 4 years 7 months after ventricular septation. Pressure in the pulmonary artery (PA) was 15/6 mm Hg (mean pressure, 10 mm Hg); in the pulmonary ventricle (PV), 20/5 mm Hg; in the aorta (Ao), 89/56 mm Hg (mean pressure, 72 mm Hg); and in the rudimentary systemic ventricle (SV), 93/3 mm Hg. (IVF = interventricular foramen; rud. RV = rudimentary right ventricle.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery 2001 71, 1344-1346DOI: (10.1016/S0003-4975(00)02526-1)
