The term univentricular heart (UH) defines complex congenital heart disease that lacks a pulmonic ventricular chamber either in the original anatomy or the final palliation. The prevalence of patients with this type of physiology continues to increase due to improved surgical palliative procedures. This review will outline the physiology, complications, and echocardiographic approach to image patients with palliated UH.
单心室心脏（UH）这一术语定义了一种复杂的先天性心脏病，其在原始解剖结构或最终姑息治疗中缺乏肺动脉心室腔。由于外科姑息治疗程序的改进，这种生理类型患者的患病率持续上升。本综述将概述姑息性单心室心脏患者的生理状况、并发症及超声心动图检查方法。
