The univentricular heart: Revisited
Cirugía Cardiovascular, 2018 Introduction: A univentricular (UV) heart is found when both atria drain mainly into one ventricle; while if either ventricle cannot sustain the systemic or the pulmonary circulation, a functionally UV heart emerges. UV heart is the source of hot debates
