The prognosis of complex adult congenital heart disease has improved with the development of new imaging techniques for diagnosis and early treatment. The assessment of right ventricular systolic function with the new echo techniques has made important advances. The following case illustrates the importance of new techniques in the assessment of right systolic function after cardiac surgery.
