Cyanotic heart defects
 TGA 8 TGA
 HLHS 5 HLHS
1 HLHS + DORV + mitral atresia
 Single ventricle 1 Tricuspid atresia + VSD
 Single ventricle with coarctation of the aorta 1 DORV + atrioventricular canal defect + coarctation
1 DORV + VSD + coarctation
1 DILV + L-TGA + aortic stenosis
 Single ventricle with pulmonary stenosis/atresia 1 DORV + hypoplastic right heart + pulmonary stenosis
1 DORV + ventricular inversion + pulmonary stenosis
1 Pulmonary atresia + hypoplastic right heart
1 DILV + L-TGA + pulmonary stenosis
1 Single ventricle + pulmonary atresia with heterotaxy
1 Tricuspid atresia + VSD + pulmonary stenosis
 2 ventricles 2 Tetralogy of Fallot (SPO2 <80)
Acyanotic heart defects
 2 Ventricles 2 Tetralogy of Fallot (SPO2 >80)
1 VSD
1 Truncus arteriosus
 2 Ventricles with coarctation of the aorta 2 Coarctation + mitral stenosis
1 VSD + coarctation
1 VSD + interrupted aortic arch
1 Ebstein anomaly + VSD + coarctation + left ventricle dysfunction

DILV, double inlet left ventricle; DORV, double outlet right ventricle; HLHS, hypoplastic left heart syndrome; L-TGA, levo-transposition of the great arteries; SPO2, blood oxygen saturation; TGA, transposition of the great arteries; VSD, ventricular septal defect.
