tricuspid atresia
Absence of the orifice between the right atrium and ventricle, with the presence of an atrial defect through which all the systemic venous return reaches the left heart. As a result, there is left ventricular hypertrophy (hypertrophy, left ventricular) because the right ventricle is absent or not functional.
