Abstract
We present a case of a rare example of a ventriculo-arterial septal defect found in a patient with a common arterial trunk, with balanced aortic and pulmonary components, but with separate valvar orifices within the common truncal valve. We managed the lesion using a two-patch approach. Performing a palliative procedure to relieve the elevated right ventricular pressure aided in the preservation of the pulmonary component of the common valve. We validated the success of the technique using postoperative computerized tomography and four-dimensional flow magnetic resonance imaging.
