ABSTRACT

We present a very rare cardiac lesion where we found a combination of abnormal pulmonary venous drainage and left-sided obstructive lesions. This case gives new insight into the complex malformation of the heart, raising questions about cardiac embryology and timing of interfering events. Here we describe the lesion for the first time and review the related literature. To the best of our knowledge, this combination has never been reported.
