Abstract

We report a case involving a 9-year-old girl with severe biventricular dysfunction due to anomalous right ventricle muscle bands. After a thorough discussion, she underwent a transcatheter stenting procedure for the double-chambered right ventricle. During her follow-up, she regained biventricular function, while remaining asymptomatic, resulting in complete recovery.

Keywords: biventricular dysfunction; double-chambered right ventricle; heart failure; heart transplant; right ventricular obstruction; stenting in the right ventricle.
