Unstable right ventricular hypertension in pulmonary atresia and intact ventricular septum: a case report.

ABSTRACT

Arterial oxygen saturation in single ventricle patients is dependent on systemic cardiac output. Here, we describe a case of a newborn with single ventricle physiology and an unusual mechanism to explain poor cardiac output and cyanosis. This case highlights the importance of identifying and considering ventricular morphology and ventricular-ventricular interactions to understand clinical challenges.
