title: [Double discordance in adults].
abstract: Double discordance (atrio ventricular and ventriculo-arterial discordance) is a complex cardiac anomaly: 0.5 to 1% of congenital heart disease. Longlife survival is frequent in isolated form of DD. But 90% of patients have additional abnormalities (VSD, AV block, left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, tricuspid valve anomalies). Natural history largely dictated by the function of systemic right ventricle and associated anomalies. Longlife follow-up is very important: rhythm disturbance, ejection fraction of right ventricle and evaluation of tricuspid regurgitation.
