ABSTRACT
We report a 17-year-old boy with double-outlet right ventricle, atrioventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, and persistent left superior vena cava who developed a protein-losing enteropathy, which was cured by coil embolization of the left azygos vein, thereby interrupting the vein-to-vein shunt.
