Case report highlights heart transplantation following resuscitation from cardiac arrest in an adolescent with Uhl's anomaly, suggesting long-term survival is possible.
We present a case of a 16-year-old male adolescent with Uhl’s anomaly who initially suffered from cardiac arrest at the age of ten. Although his parents refused treatment at first, he managed to survive for five years without any surgical intervention before the heart transplantation was performed. It is the first case of an adolescent who underwent heart transplantation several years after resuscitation had been done due to Uhl’s anomaly.
