Abstract:
Scimitar syndrome is characterised by anomalous right pulmonary venous drainage to the inferior vena cava associated with right pulmonary artery hypoplasia. We present a case of an infant with Scimitar syndrome with a well-formed right pulmonary artery, in high Qp heart failure who was managed with right pulmonary artery banding after thorough haemodynamic evaluation.
