Right pulmonary artery originating from the ascending aorta with tetralogy of fallot and pulmonary atresia
Anomalous pulmonary artery originating from the ascending aorta (often called hemitruncus) is a rare congenital cardiac defect requiring immediate management in the neonatal period. We report a case of a rare variant of anomalous right pulmonary artery originating from the ascending aorta in combination with pulmonary atresia and tetralogy of Fallot. The above-mentioned combination makes the surgical management of such cardiac defect exceedingly demanding.
