Abstract Heart failure (HF) is a complex clinical syndrome that can result from any structural or functional cardiac disorder that impairs the ability of the ventricle to fill with or eject blood. The cardinal manifestations of HF are dyspnea and fatigue, which may limit exercise tolerance, and fluid retention, which may lead to pulmonary congestion and peripheral edema [1]. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in clinical practice, accounting for approximately one third of admissions resulting from cardiac rhythm disturbances [2].

JUNIPER PUBLISHERS - OPEN ACCESS JOURNAL OF CARDIOLOGY & CARDIOVASCULAR THERAPY   Abstract A double inlet single ventricle is a congenital heart malformation in which both atria are connected to a common or dominant ventricle. It's a rare condition that accounts for about 1 to 2% of all congenital heart defects at birth. Prognosis without surgical intervention is considered to be poor, and survival into the adulthood is unusual. A non invasive cardiac imaging (like echocardiography) play major role in diagnosis, assessment of ventricular function and atrioventricular valves and detection of complications in pre and post operative period after a palliative or definitive surgery. A cardiac catheterization will usually be performed to evaluate defects, associated abnormalities and the amount of blood that is mixing. Several surgical options are available for this condition. We report the case of a 28 years old man who has type A of Van Praagh's classification of si...
