Contrast-enhanced computed tomography angiography sagittal oblique image (a) showing the double outlet of right ventricle (white arrow) with ventricular septal defect (black asterisk); volume-rendered images (b and c) showing the criss-cross pulmonary artery configuration (white asterisk-left pulmonary artery, (b) and the aberrant origin of the right vertebral artery (arrow, c), with brachiocephalic trunk giving rise to right common carotid (arrow head, c) and right subclavian (asterisk, c) artery. Axial oblique maximum intensity projection image (d) showing the anomalous origin of left circumflex artery (black arrow head) from right coronary cusp (black arrow) with normal origin of right coronary (white arrow head) and left anterior descending coronary (black asterisk) arteries. Note the ostium Secundum ASD (asterisk, e), mild esophageal (asterisk) compression by right vertebral artery (arrow, f). Cavitatory consolidation (asterisk) with centrilobular nodules were noted in both the upper lobes suggestive of infective lung changes (g). Sputum examination was positive for acid-fast bacilli
