Abstrakt: Key Clinical Message: Double‐chambered right ventricle (DCRV) is a rare congenital heart defect often associated with ventricular septal defect and pulmonary stenosis. Cardiac catheterization or magnetic resonance imaging can differentiate between DCRV and Tetralogy of Fallot when echocardiogram is inconclusive. Patients are at an increased risk for bacterial endocarditis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
