Abstract: The cyanotic congenital heart defect remains a focal point to study in congenital heart diseases. A successfully developed model of cyanotic congenital heart defect can contribute to a profound advancement of clinical diagnosis and treatment. Various kinds of animal models simulating cyanotic heart diseases have been created and improved step by step , such as experimental pulmonary arteriovenous fistulas, inferior vena cava-left atrium shunt, pulmonary artery-left atrium shunt and breeding animals in mionect ic environment. As an important means, they are used to investigate the animal’s pathophysilolgocal characteristics in cyanotic and hypoxic state. However, it need a further exploration since these models are not fully perfect yet.
