title: [Surgical treatment of total anomalous drainage of pulmonary veins into the right superior vena cava].
abstract: This report describes a 2-month-old boy with diagnosis of total anomalous pulmonary venous obstruction and marked hypertension established by cross-sectioned echocardiography and catheterization with angiography. Successful surgical correction was performed with profound hypothermia and circulatory arrest. The risk factors and the high operative mortality associated with this type of anomaly are analyzed.
