【 摘 要 】

In a newborn in whom cor triatriatum was missed on echocardiography, infracardiac totalanomalous pulmonary venous connection was successfully repaired with the aid of cardiaccomputed tomography (CT). In rare combinations, as in this case, an accurate diagnosisprior to surgery, which is of vital importance for successful repair, can be made through ahigh index of suspicion and the use of a supplemental imaging modality such as CT.
