Abstract
A rare case of aorta to right ventricle tunnel with associated pulmonary stenosis was corrected on cardiopulmonary bypass in a 3-month-old infant. Both the aortic and ventricular openings were closed with a patch. Although the repair was successful and the child was discharged from the hospital, septicemia developed and she died later. Early repair of this defect is recommended.
