ABSTRACT
We performed surgical correction of a single atrium in a 46-year-old man, who had suffered from congestive heart failure (NYHA II) and pulmonary hypertension (58/23 (36) /mmHg). An intra-atrial shunt (L-R 71%, R-L 14%) due to single atrium and mild mitral and tricuspid regurgitation were detected. The operation consisted of making a new atrial septum with an autologous pericardial patch and direct mitral cleft suture. The post-operative course was uneventful.
