    Abstract:
    A successful Rastelli operation for double outlet right ventricle (DORV) with a chordae insertion of the tricuspid valve to the infundibular septum was reported. A patient was a 6-year-old boy and the diagnosis was DORV, d-malposition of the aorta and pulmonary stenosis. The infundibular septum was not resected but mobilized with two incision, one anterior and vertical, and other one subaortic. This procedure allowed the construction of the tunnel similar to the closure of a large, subarterial VSD and of the straight unobstractive left outflow tract. The postoperative echocardiographic and angiographic examination revealed neither the pressure gradient in the left ventricular outflow tract nor the tricuspid regurgitation.
