Abstract

Aortopulmonary window is a condition characterized by a communication between the pulmonary artery and the ascending aorta. The coexistence of aortopulmonary window and an anomalous right coronary artery originating from the pulmonary artery is rarely observed together, as mentioned in previous studies. In this report, we aim to describe our diagnostic and treatment experiences with a 6-year-old patient diagnosed with aortopulmonary window associated with an abnormal origin of the right coronary artery from the pulmonary artery.
