Abstract
Single ventricle heart is a rare cardiac abnormality identified by just a single ventricle involving various functional and physiological defects. This abnormality may cause sudden cardiac death. In this case, we reported a 71 day infant died on the fifth day after discharged from hospital who was buried without legal procedures. Autopsy findings were single ventricle, tricuspid atresia and aortic coarctation, a large heart weighing 134 grams. Our aim by reviewing this case report is to present the legal burial procedures, the autopsy and the clinical features of the subject.
