Total anomalous pulmonary venous connection with bronchogenic cyst in neonatal period.
Here, we report a case of a two-day-old neonate with total anomalous pulmonary venous connection to the innominate vein and a bronchogenic cyst arising from the trachea. Antenatal echocardiography had delineated both cardiac and extracardiac lesions, and a repeated examination on the day of birth disclosed progressive enlargement in the cyst in a manner so as to obstruct the innominate vein. On the second day of life, the patient underwent complete correction of the cardiac lesion and total excision of the cyst. The patient recovered uneventfully and was discharged on the thirteenth postoperative day.
