Abstract
We report the first known case of superoinferior ventricles with a superior morphologically left ventricle and an inferior morphologically right ventricle. This 2½-year-old boy also had dextrocardia, double-outlet right ventricle {S,L,L}, right-sided mitral atresia, left-sided tricuspid regurgitation, a large conoventricular type of ventricular septal defect, and pulmonary outflow tract stenosis. This very rare form of superoinferior ventricles appears to be due to excessive levorotation (≃170°) of discordant L-loop ventricles.
