ABSTRACT

The anomalous origin of one of the branches of the pulmonary artery from the ascending aorta is a rare congenital heart disease, with 30% survival at the first year. We report the case of a 43-year-old male patient, showing how atypical this case is. The patient was maintaining in stable clinical conditions without any correction at an early age until the moment of its resolution. This case is totally unexpected according to the previously published in the literature.
