We present a successful surgical repair of a single atrium (SA) in a 27-year-old woman, who had a complete missing of the atrial septum, without any coexisting valvular pathology. The SA diameter was 9.97 x 6.18 cm and the Qp/Qs were 4.1 due to single atrium. Surgical correction consisted in creating a new atrial septum, using doublevelor patch. First and second year follow up, patient in very good condition and without any symptoms present. We consider that the diagnoses of single atrium, especially in child bearing women is done in appropriate time, in order to avoid miscarriages and other complications associated.
