Abstract:
We report a rare case of combined supra- and infracardiac type of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (mixed-type TAPVC) in a 26-day-old low birth weight (1.9 kg) infant who was admitted with respiratory distress. The child underwent successful surgical repair using a novel surgical technique and is doing well at one year follow-up.
