ABSTRACT
The case of a four-months old male with coexistent tricuspid atresia and common
arterial trunk is presented. The diagnois was made by cardiac catheterization
and selective angiocardiography. Clinical considerations are discussed and the
review of the available literature reveals this patient to be the tenth case
reported of this very unusual association of cardiovascular defects, and the
first with positive deletion of the 22q11 chromosome.
