Abstract
The pentalogy of Cantrell is a rare and fatal malformation. A left ventricular diverticulum is a common finding of this pentalogy. The present report summarizes our experience with three patients who suffered from pentalogy of Cantrell. All three cases had a left ventricular diverticulum. The intracardiac malformations and the left ventricular diverticulum were corrected simultaneously. All patients recovered uneventfully. One-stage surgical correction could improve short-term outcomes in selected patients with pentalogy of Cantrell.
