ABSTRACT
Modified Norwood procedure with maintaining cardiac beat was done in a 30-day-old neonate. Procedure was done with regional perfusion of innominate and coronary artery. Postoperative course was uneventful. Second-stage operation (bi-directional cavopulmonary shunt) was done 4 months later. The diameter of ascending aorta was more than 5 mm, Norwood procedure can be done in beating hearts.

Berry syndrome (interrupted aortic arch, aortopulmonary window, and aortic origin of right pulmonary artery with intact interventricular septum) is a very rare and complex cardiac malformation. We report a successful one-stage repair in a 14-day-old neonate without circulatory arrest.
