Presentation
A sub-aortic ventricular septal defect secondary to malalignment of the septum was present. Subpulmonary and valvular pulmonary stenosis were observed with a hypoplastic main pulmonary artery. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Its pre-natal diagnosis warrants utmost importance provided its non-apparent presentation. This is the first case of this magnitude being reported and presented in Pakistan. [apicareonline.com]

Median age at presentation was 2 days (birth—5.5 years). [scipers.com]
Workup
Workup There are several approaches that may be used to diagnose DORV, which in some cases can be done even before the baby is born, prenatally. [news-medical.net]
Treatment
To our knowledge, this represents the second instance of surgical treatment of double-outlet left ventricle [I,D,D] reported in the literature. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Many children with congenital heart defects don't need treatment, but others do. Treatment can include medicines, catheter procedures, surgery, and heart transplants. [icdlist.com]
Management and treatment Biventricular repair is the usual treatment for DOLV and is usually accomplished by an intraventricular baffle procedure, by the Rastelli procedure or by a variant of the Lecompte operation. [orpha.net]

Prognosis
The prognosis after this operation for single ventricle patients is better than for other treatments, and improvements of surgical technique continue to be made. [chla.congenital.org]
Prognosis DOLV is associated with high mortality, generally due to heart failure, myocardial infarction or aortic thrombosis. With surgery, the five-year survival rate is estimated at 70-75%. [orpha.net]
Factors that determine the type and number of operations the baby needs include: The type of DORV The severity of the defect The presence of other problems in the heart The child's overall condition Outlook (Prognosis) How well the baby does depends on [ufhealth.org]
Etiology
Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. [icd10coded.com]
Etiology The etiopathology is not clearly understood. [orpha.net]
Double inlet left ventricle (DILV) is a rare condition and its exact etiology is currently unknown. It occurs in 5 to 10 out of 100 000 births. [news-medical.net]
Epidemiology
Summary Epidemiology Prevalence is unknown. The birth prevalence is estimated at less than 1/ 200,000 live births. [orpha.net]
Epidemiology [ edit ] DORV affects between 1% and 3% of people born with congenital heart defects. [1] Chromosomal abnormalities were reported in about 40% of reported cases in the medical literature. [1] References [ edit ] ^ a b Obler D, Juraszek AL [en.wikipedia.org]

Pathophysiology
(Click picture to show/hide bloodflows) Pathophysiology The hemodynamics involved with double outlet right ventricle are dependent on the anatomy of the great vessels and associated defects. [vhlab.umn.edu]
Anatomy and pathophysiology [ edit ] DORV occurs in multiple forms, with variability of great artery position and size, as well as of ventricular septal defect (VSD) location. It can occur with or without transposition of the great arteries. [en.wikipedia.org]
Prevention
This prevents infections around the heart. Antibiotics may also be needed after surgery. Call your health care provider if your child seems to tire easily, has trouble breathing, or has bluish skin or lips. [medlineplus.gov]
