ABSTRACT
In patients with a functional single ventricle such as neonatal Ebstein's anomaly or pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum, the right ventricle can compress the left ventricle and decrease its performance due to the volume or pressure overload of the right ventricle. We have performed right ventricular centripetal plication from the inside to exclude the right ventricle and to minimize the adverse effect on the left ventricle and the results have been satisfactory.
