[Univentricular heart; angiocardiographic study].
Authors present angiocardiographic study of 19 patients with univentricular heart. It was realized during the neonatal period in 13 cases and between the six first six months in the rest. To determine the existence of an only ventricle contrast was injected in the right and left atrium and the ventricle through the right and left atrioventricular valve. The bulbo-ventricular foramen was orientated in all cases from back-front wards. Those of left ventricle type had a right anterior, anterior-superior or left-anterior rudimentary chamber. Depending on its' morphology they were classified in three types: left, right or indeterminate. In these series fourteen patients had left ventricle morphology. All cases had a rudimentary chamber: 10 with transposition great vessel and four with normal related great vessels. Six presented normal situs (five with levocardia , and eight ambiguous situs (six with asplenia, four with dextrocardia). In nine atrio ventricular valves were anomalous. In the indeterminate type, two had a normal situs, two with polysplenia and two asplenia. Cardiac apex was oriented to the right in two (one asplenia). The two patients with polysplenia and one with normal situs and single atrium had a common ventricular valve. Four had an anterior aorta and three pulmonary obstruction.
