title: Giant dissecting ventricular septal haematoma associated with critical congenital heart disease.
abstract: The occurrence of an haematoma in the interventricular septum is very rare. We report a case of a giant interventricular septal haematoma after surgical correction of a critical pulmonary valve stenosis in a newborn with intact ventricular septum. Control echocardiography showed complete resolution of the haematoma at 6-month follow-up.
