Double-chambered right ventricle (DCRV) is a rare congenital heart disorder involving 2 different right ventricle (RV) pressure compartments that is often associated with ventricular septal defect (VSD). Usually, the obstruction is caused by an anomalous muscle bundle crossing the RV from the interventricular septum to the RV free wall. We are reporting a case of double-chambered right ventricle associated with ventricular septal defect and congenital absence of the pulmonary valve, a rare form of congenital infundibular pulmonary stenosis. In addition to ventricular septal defect, our patient had congenital absence of the pulmonary valve, which is very unusual and has never been reported to our knowledge.
双腔右心室(DCRV)是一种罕见的先天性心脏病,涉及两个不同的右心室(RV)压力腔,常与室间隔缺损(VSD)相关。通常,梗阻是由一条异常肌束从室间隔穿过右心室至右心室游离壁所致。我们报告一例双腔右心室合并室间隔缺损及先天性肺动脉瓣缺如的病例,这是一种罕见的先天性漏斗部肺动脉狭窄形式。除室间隔缺损外,我们的患者还存在先天性肺动脉瓣缺如,这非常罕见,据我们所知从未有过报道。
