Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Pediatric patients under 18 years of age with: Complex cyanotic congenital heart disease with difficult PA anatomy. Complex cyanotic heart defect with poor ECHO window. Congenital heart defect in whom vascular rings, arch of aorta hypoplasia, and interrupted aortic arch are suspected. Complex aberrant pulmonary vein drainage and an unusual type of TAPVC Rare cases of abnormal systemic venous drainage, pulmonary arterio-venous fistula, and pulmonary thromboembolism are suspected.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients with renal failure in whom serum creatinine is higher, and contrast administration is not advisable. Those who have undergone diagnostic cardiac catheterisation and pulmonary artery anatomy have been well defined. Complex cyanotic congenital heart defects in whom ECHO can identify the anatomy without any ambiguity
