Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection and Aortopulmonary Window: Successful Management of a Rare Association.
World J Pediatr Congenit Heart Surg
November 2021
Biosciences Institute, Faculty of Medical Sciences, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom.
The association of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) with aortopulmonary window (APW) is extremely rare. The coexistence of these two anomalies will have implications on clinical presentation, diagnosis, and pathophysiology. The lungs are exposed to pulmonary venous hypertension due to obstructed TAPVC as well as pulmonary arterial hypertension due to unrestrictive APW.

Aortopulmonary window (APW) is an abnormal congenital connection between the main pulmonary artery (MPA) and the ascending aorta, with intact aortic and pulmonary valves, leading to heart failure or, if not repaired early, to pulmonary vascular obstructive disease. We report the rare case of an asymptomatic adult with an unrestrictive APW, whose pulmonary arterial hypertension was remarkably still reversible, permitting successful repair.

Persistence of the embryonic "fifth aortic arch" in postnatal life is a rare, enigmatic - and at times controversial - condition, with variable anatomical forms and physiological consequences. First described in humans over 40 years ago by Van Praagh, the condition was labelled the "great pretender" by Gerlis 25 years later, because of its apparent propensity to mimic anatomically similar structures. Despite many subsequent case reports citing the condition, the true developmental origin of these structures remains unresolved, and has been the subject of debate among embryologists for more than a century.
