Abstract

A non-dysmorphic 10 month old female was discovered at surgery to have severe vasculopathy of both the systemic and pulmonary arteries. These findings were confirmed by pathologic examination. Followup angiography has confirmed multiple sites of vascular obstruction which appear to be worsening. Angioplasty has only partially relieved these obstructions. The pathology and possible etiology are reviewed.
