title: Double-outlet left atrium with intact ventricular septum.
abstract: The clinical course and surgical repair of double-outlet left atrium with intact ventricular septum in a 13-year-old girl are presented. The only outlet of the right atrium was a secundum atrial septal defect, and the left atrium drained into both ventricles through two atrioventricular valves. To our knowledge, there has been only one other published report of repair of double-outlet left atrium.
