Tetralogy of Fallot with pulmonary atresia and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries is a rare congenital heart lesion in which pulmonary blood supply may arise from different segments of the aorta. We report an unusual case of a newborn with a major collateral artery originating from the proximal ascending aorta. Successful reparative surgery was undertaken.

Dual phase multidetector computed tomography angiography in evaluation of pulmonary arteries and collateral vessels in children with cyanotic congenital heart diseases.

Background: The purpose of this paper is to compare the efficacy of dual-phase multidetector computed tomography angiography (CTA) with transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) and cardiac catheterization angiography (CCA) in evaluation of pulmonary arteries and collateral vessels, major aortopulmonary collateral arteries (MAPCAs) in children with cyanotic congenital heart diseases.
Methods: The study was a prospective observational study where 32 pediatric patients (18 males, 14 females and age range 2-116 months) with cyanotic congenital heart diseases (CCHD) were included. All patients underwent TTE, CTA, and CCA.
Unifocalization of Major Aortopulmonary Collateral Arteries (MAPCAs) and Native Pulmonary Arteries in Infancy-Application of 3D Printing and Virtual Reality.

Background: Major aortopulmonary collateral arteries (MAPCAs) are rare remnants of pulmonary circulation embryological development usually associated with complex congenital anomalies of the right ventricular outflow tract and pulmonary arteries. Effective management requires surgical unifocalization of MAPCAs and native pulmonary arteries (NPAs). Traditional imaging may lack the spatial clarity needed for precise surgical planning.

Collateral vascular arteries from the descending aorta to the pulmonary arteries are uncommon after arterial switch operation. We describe a case of transposition of the great arteries (TGA) with significant aortopulmonary collateral vessels causing management difficulties after an arterial switch operation. Preoperatively, the presence of collaterals exacerbated aortic diastolic runoff and led to myocardial ischemia.

Background: In patients with adult congenital heart disease (ACHD), significant atrioventricular valve regurgitation is an important risk factor for poor outcomes, such as heart failure. However, in many cases, transcatheter intervention may reduce the risk profile to avoid a high surgical risk.
Case Summary: A 44-year-old man with complex ACHD in the form of a double-inlet left ventricle, congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries, pulmonary atresia, atrial septal defect, and patent ductus arteriosus was referred for the treatment of severe tricuspid regurgitation.

Quantification of right ventricular (RV) size and function after tetralogy of Fallot repair is critical for determining timing of reintervention and outcomes. Tetralogy of Fallot patients with pulmonary atresia and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries (TOF/PA/MAPCAs) are a unique group in which the RV is subjected to various loading conditions, allowing for direct comparison. Retrospective evaluation of RV echocardiographic indices in repaired pediatric TOF/PA/MAPCAs patients (2/2002 - 4/2018).
