Hypoplastic right ventricle with mild pulmonary stenosis in an adult.

The final diagnosis was hypoplastic right ventricle with mild pulmonary stenosis, where the latter was not responsible for the right-to-left shunting across a large atrial septal defect. The differences from cases reported in the literature are highlighted.
