Abstract
Endomyocardial fibrosis is an endemic problem in tropical countries and is characterised by ventricular cavity obliteration, decreased ventricular compliance, and atrioventricular valve regurgitation. We report on a patient with right ventricular endomyocardial fibrosis resulting in obliteration of the cavity and tricuspid regurgitation treated successfully by total cavopulmonary connection and exclusion of the right ventricle.Entities:
