Abstract
We report 2 cases of absence of the posterior (left mural) leaflet in complete atrioventricular septal defect. Closure of the atrioventricular septal defect was successfully accomplished in both cases. We describe the technique of left atrioventricular valve repair that led to a competent reconstructed valve.
