Patients with obstructed total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) usually present critically ill and continue to be extremely challenging with presurgical stabilization. We present an extra corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)-dependent neonate with obstructed TAPVC that was successfully palliated with transvenous stent placement in the obstructed vertical vein.
A male infant is reported with bilateral low-set dysplastic ears, a severe cardiac defect, rib and vertebral anomalies, and intestinal malrotation. Karyotype and metabolic investigations were normal. Some clinical overlap with Goldenhar syndrome is observed but the symmetry of the facial features makes this diagnosis difficult to sustain. We feel this case may represent a previously undescribed condition, arising from abnormal development of the first and second branchial arches during embryonic life.
