One day in January 2007, a little patient was sent to the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, the Second Hospital of Harbin Medical University. Her face, lips and fingertips were all in purple, and she panted with profuse sweats after slight movements. Her severe symptoms greatly surprised the surrounding patients, and even the head nurse thought that she was seriously ill. However, the experts were not surprised, because children with congenital heart disease often have anoxia symptoms. In order to find out the true reason, they needed to use B-ultrasound to analyze. But as the examination went on, a strange phenomenon appeared: this child had only half a heart.
