We present the case of an infant with left atrial isomerism with complex pulmonary and systemic venous connections that resulted in physiological parallel circulation in the setting of ventriculoarterial concordance who was surgically treated using the Senning procedure. This case highlights a rare cause for cyanosis due to poor mixing from a parallel circulation and an issue with nomenclature. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
