title: Repair of massive ventricular septal defect with tricuspid straddling under mild hypothermia cardiopulmonary bypass with beating heart.
abstract: A 17-year-old woman with ventricular septal defect and tricuspid straddling valve. There are few reports about these associations in literature. We successfully performed a total correction which consisted of a close of the ventricular septal defect and suspension of straddling tricuspid valve. Ventricular septal defect was closed with a dacron patch and straddling tricuspid valve was suspended into the appropriate ventricle. The postoperative course has been uneventful.
