ABSTRACT
A 1-month-old girl was referred at our Institution
with a history of heart failure and cyanosis. We
established diagnosis of multiple congenital heart
disease with criss-crossed atrioventricular connections
but concordant. This type of anomaly has
a variety of presentations of high diagnostic complexity.
The multiple lesions included double outlet
of the right ventricle, right subaortic stenosis,
ventricular septal defect, coarctation of the aorta
with hypoplasia of the arch, and persistent patency
of the arterial duct, established through
echocardiography, angiocardiography and magnetic
resonance. These findings prompted palliative
surgery and correction of the aortic arch.
