    Abstract:
    A 24-year-old pregnant female was admitted to our hospital because of congestive heart failure. When she was 3 month old, she underwent closure of patent ductus arteriosus. Echocardiography, cardiac catheterization and selective angiocardiography showed a left ventricular-right atrial shunt. At the operation, we found a left ventricular right-atrial communication (group I) and repaired the defect directly. The patient was discharged and returned to her social life.
