    Abstract:
    This reports concerns a 9 years old boy, who had situs solitus and atrioventricular concordance with double outlet left ventricle, pulmonary stenosis, tricuspid stenosis, ventricular septal defect, secundum atrial septal defects and hypoplastic right ventricle. Previous Blalock-Taussig shunt was created at the age of 11 months. Total correction consisted of closure of atrial septal defect and tricuspid valve orifice, and direct anastomosis of right atrial appendage to pulmonary trunk. Though atrial pacing was required for the immediate post operative period, the patient regained sinus rhythm 3 days after operation. He is doing well at present, one year after the operation.
