pubmed:abstractText
A 2 year old boy with ventricular inversion and normal ventriculoarterial connection is described. Associated cardiac lesions included single atrium, absence of the coronary sinus, bilateral superior venae cavae, absence of the hepatic segment of the inferior vena cava with azygos and hemiazygos continuation, right aortic arch, levocardia and left atrial isomerism. At 5 days of age, the patient underwent a Waterston (aortopulmonary) anastomosis because of suspected pulmonary atresia. The correct diagnosis was established at 2 years of age and the patient had a successful Mustard operation (interatrial baffle procedure) and closure of the Waterston anastomosis. Accurate preoperative diagnosis is difficult in this rare cardiac anomaly and the reported mortality rate is high.
