Abstract

Congenital aortocaval fistula is a very rare anomaly. Clinically, it resembles conditions that cause left-to-right shunt of blood. We report a case of such anomaly in combination with a secundum atrial septal defect in a 13-month-old girl who presented with failure to thrive and exertional respiratory symptoms. The aortocaval fistula was occluded percutaneously using an Amplatzer® Duct Occluder.
