Abstract

We are presenting a 4 weeks old neonate with weight of 2.7 kg,
diagnosed as a non-obstructive scimitar syndrome (right lower
pulmonary vein draining directly to IVC) and multiple massive
aorto-pulmonary collaterals to the right lung and ASD secundum,
hypoplasia of right pulmonary artery and right lung. Diagnosis
was confirmed by transthoracic Echocardiography, CT scan of
abdomen and thorax with contrast and cardiac MRI.
