Aorto-Right Ventricular Tunnel: An Uncommon Problem with a Common Solution

Abstract

Aorto-ventricular tunnel is a rare congenital malformation, and aorto-right ventricular tunnel (ARVT) is an even less common entity. Here, we report the case of a 3-month-old female who underwent successful surgical closure of ARVT. The origin of the right coronary artery was proximal to the ostium of the tunnel.
