Double ‐outlet left ventricle with a bicuspid pulmonary valve and aortic coarctation
Abstract
A double‐outlet left ventricle (DOLV) is a rare congenital cardiac malformation. Here, we describe a case of DOLV with bicuspid pulmonary valve, aortic coarctation, and a subpulmonary ventricular septal defect in which both ventricles were well developed. The anatomic features were observed with echocardiography, and the diagnosis was confirmed at surgery. Many variations of DOLV have been described. The features of our case expand the spectrum of this entity and may provide new insight into its complex anatomy.
