Abstract

Anomalous systemic venous connection to left atrium is rare anomaly. Previously published cases described this anatomy in patients with left isomerism. Depending on the size of the atrial septal defect, patients usually present with varying degrees of cyanosis and right heart hypoplasia. Here, we report a case of anomalous systemic venous connection to left atrium in a newborn with the usual atrial arrangement.
