Abstract: | Summary The case of a female neonate with truncus solitarius pulmonalis (TSP), a rare congenital heart anomaly, is reported. She died four days after birth. A single right ventricle with common atrioventricular (AV) valve was associated with (Collet & Edwards type II) truncus arteriosus communis, and appeared to have a single coronary artery with an abnormally high take-off near the origin of the right subclavian artery. However, the vessel that appeared to be the single coronary artery was in fact an extremely hypoplastic ascending aorta associated with aortic atresia and agenesis of the left ventricle and mitral valve. |
