## Abstract Patients with obstructed total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) usually present critically ill and continue to be extremely challenging with presurgical stabilization. We present an extra corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)βdependent neonate with obstructed TAPVC that was

## Abstract A newborn girl with progressive respiratory distress and cyanosis was found to have severely obstructed supracardiac total pulmonary venous return (TAPVR). Stenting of the stenosis provided immediate and effective relief of the obstruction until corrective surgery was performed. Cathete
A 9-month-old male with asplenia and complex congenital heart disease experienced progressive stenosis of an anomalous pulmonary venous connection. He developed pulmonary edema and growth failure. Two stents were placed concentrically to relieve the stenosis, and the pulmonary edema and growth failu
A 6-week-old male presented in-extremis with obstructed supra-cardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous connection. Balloon dilation and stent implantation in the stenotic segment of the vertical vein relieved the obstruction until the patient was stable enough to undergo surgical repair. An unusual
