title: A cross between truncus arteriosus communis and aortopulmonary septal defect: a hitherto undescribed entity.
abstract: Case history and necropsy findings of a 5-month-old infant with a unique heart defect with features of truncus arteriosus communis and aortopulmonary defect in combination with severe tricuspid stenosis are presented. There is a wide spectrum of remarkable heart defects between truncus arteriosus communis and aortopulmonary septal defect.
