Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is a very unique
single ventricle pathology among congenital cardiac
anomalies. This syndrome is characterized by hypoplasia
or absence of the left ventricle, mitral and aortic valve,
and severe hypoplasia of the ascending aorta. While an
aortopulmonary shunt is used for pulmonary circulation
in classical Norwood procedure which is a first stage palliation,
right ventricle to pulmonary artery shunt is used in
Sano modification. This case report presents a successful
Norwood stage 1 palliation with Sano modification in a
patient with HLHS diagnosed in fetal period.
