Uhl's anomaly complicated with critical ventricular arrhythmia in a 2-month-old infant

We report a case of Uhl's anomaly in a 2-month-old infant who presented with critical ventricular arrhythmia. The patient underwent a successfully surgical repair by semitotal resection of the right ventricle free wall, tricuspid annuloplasty, and one and one-half ventricular repair.
