title: Unique combination of atrioventricular septal defect with cor triatriatum and complete vascular ring.
abstract: Atrioventricular septal defect can present with one or more associated anomalies. Cor triatriatum (subdivided left atrium) and vascular rings are among the less frequent. We describe a two-month-old patient with these three cardiovascular anomalies. This case highlights the importance of exhaustive preoperative evaluation in order to achieve successful surgical correction in one stage.
