Truncus arteriosus (TA) is a rare congenital anomaly that has complex cardiovascular anatomy and is associated with severe complications and pathologies. Understanding and treating TA and its complications are crucial for the survival and outcome of patients.
Truncus arteriosus (TA) is a very rare congenital anomaly with complex cardiovascular anatomy and high lethality also due to severe associated anatomical variants and pathologies. As TA has a massive impact on the survival of a newborn and usually has to be surgically treated. Thus, it is of high importance to understand this congenital cardiovascular disease and associated complications, to improve life expectancy and outcome of these patients. We recently came across a newborn female patient with a rare complex case of persistent TA type 2 associated with further complex cardiovascular anomalies, who received a contrast enhanced CT scan on the 3 rd day post-partum, showing complex cardiovascular abnormalities that were ultimately incompatible with life.
