Long-term survival in double inlet left ventricle combined with pulmonary stenosis and parachute mitral valve: a rare case.
Univentricular heart is a rare and complex congenital disease. Its prognosis is usually poor without surgical intervention and long-term survival into adulthood is rare. We report a 41-year-old man with a double inlet left ventricle with pulmonary stenosis and a parachute mitral valve verified by echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
