Abstract

Unbalanced atrioventricular canal can be a challenging pathology when making a surgical decision, especially in patients with moderate left ventricular hypoplasia. Therefore, the approach is complex and must be fully evaluated and possibly with a multi-imaging modality. The aim of this paper is present an echocardiographic update for evaluation of right unbalanced atrioventricular septal defect, as a useful tool for cardiologist in making surgical decisions in front of this complex pathology.
