  • The patient was a 30-day-old female infant with symptoms of severe dyspnea and cyanosis, when she was admitted to the ER. The echocardiography revealed DORV with subpulmonary VSD, and the diagnosis of Taussig-Bing anomaly was made. Two days after admission, an urgent operation was performed. The operation consisted of intraventricular tunnel repair and arterial switch operation. She was discharged, and after checking her chest X-ray through OPD, there was no interval change of cardiomegaly. She was then re-admitted, and the angiography revealed coactation of aorta. We performed a resection and end-to-end anastomosis of aorta. She is currently in good condition 11 months postoperatively.
