[Aortico-left ventricular tunnel associated with pulmonary valve stenosis]

Aortico-left ventricular tunnel is an unusual cardiac anomaly. The main clinical feature is early, severe aortic regurgitation, and surgical management is mandatory. Exceptionally this defect is associated with pulmonary valve stenosis. A case of a newborn with aortico-left ventricular tunnel plus pulmonary valve stenosis is reported. Initially she underwent percutaneous pulmonary valvuloplasty during diagnostic cardiac catheterization and with surgical closure of the tunnel later.
