BACKGROUND: Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection with intact interatrial septum is extremely rare. AIMS: In these patients, a right to left shunt through a ventricular septal defect or a patent ductus arteriosus is mandatory to maintain the systemic circulation. Mechanical or physiological restriction of shunting through these pathways results in rapid clinical deterioration. DISCUSSION: We describe the anatomical findings with surgical repair in one such 10-day-old baby.
