Aortopulmonary Window With Pulmonary Atresia and Interrupted Aortic Arch: A Very Rare Triad

Doaa A Shahbah et al. World J Pediatr Congenit Heart Surg. 2019 Nov.

Abstract

Aortopulmonary window (APW) is a rare lesion, accounting for 0.2% to 0.6% of all congenital heart diseases. We report a rare case of an infant with APW, interrupted aortic arch, and pulmonary atresia with intact interventricular septum and right ventricle-dependent coronary circulation. This report describes the anatomy of this lesion set, the complex surgical palliation that was required, and the management of postoperative complications.
