Between January 1982 and May 1984 37 patients with a univentricular heart who had undergone two-dimensional echocardiography and cardiac catheterization were reviewed. The clinical, electrocardiographic, radiological and anatomical data are analysed and the controversy regarding this condition is discussed. The management and appropriate surgical procedures are presented.
