title: Successful pregnancy in a patient with a double inlet left ventricle treated with a septation procedure.
abstract: Because of improved medical and surgical care, women with univentricular hearts may live to enter the reproductive years and become pregnant. Pregnancy in a woman with a history of a univentricular heart treated successfully with a septation repair can follow a favorable course if she is acyanotic without functional or cardiovascular compromise.
