Abstract
Cor biloculare is one of the rare congenital malformations of the heart in which the heart has only two chambers, an atrium and a ventricle. The common atrium communicates with the common ventricle through the common atrioventricular valve. This cyanotic congenital heart disease is associated with other malformations like dextrocardia, polysplenic or asplenic syndrome, anomalous pulmonary venous drainage and persistent left superior vena cava. The death of patients with cor biloculare is common in neonatal period and a very few can survive to adult life. We present autopsy findings in a three day old female newborn with cor biloculare associated with persistent left superior vena cava, anomalous pulmonary venous connection, and atretic aorta with patent ductus arteriosus continuation of aorta. The possible embryological basis of this complex malformation is discussed. Other associated malformations were micrognathia, cleft palate and left lower limb deformity.
